RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #74-341-70(10) with Bay Area Doctors, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $1,300,000, to provide Medi-Cal specialty mental health services, for the period from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $1,300,000 over a 2-year period and will be funded 50% by Federal Medi-Cal ($650,000) and 50% by State Mental Health Realignment Funds ($650,000).









BACKGROUND:

On January 14, 1997, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution #97/17, authorizing the Health Services Director to contract with the State Department of Mental Health, (now known as the Department of Health Care Services) to assume responsibility for Medi-Cal specialty mental health services. Responsibility for outpatient specialty mental health services involves contracts with individual, group and organizational providers to deliver these services since January 2011.  
  
On June 2, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-341-70(9), with Bay Area Doctors, Inc., for the provision of Medi-Cal specialty mental health services for the period from July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2022.  
  
Approval of Contract #74-341-70(10) will allow the Contractor to continue providing mental health services through June 30, 2024.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, services provided to Contra Costa Mental Health Plan Medi-Cal beneficiaries could be negatively impacted, including access to services, choice of providers, cultural competency, language capacity, geographical locations of service providers, and waiting lists.
