RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of County Contract #74-594, which contains mutual indemnification, with Objective Arts, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $90,000 to provide outcome assessment software and services required to utilize the Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS) and Pediatric Symptoms Checklist (PSC-35) assessments for client-level reporting to the State of California, for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded 100% by County Realignment funds.

BACKGROUND:

As per California Department of Healthcare Services (DHCS) requirements, as of 10/1/2018, the County is required to utilize the CANS and PSC-35 assessments for client-level reporting to the State of California on a quarterly basis.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In order to collect and analyze data from Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and Contractors, an electronic data Management System will help in the data management and reporting requirements needed for submission to the state.

Under Contract #74-594, the Contractor will provide the configuration of the web-based data system, reporting capacity, training and technical support to the County, through December 31, 2019. The License and Service Agreement obligates the County to indemnify Objective Arts, Inc. against losses arising from County’s misuse of the software.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to approve the agreement and pay for the services would interrupt the messaging system reminders and fail to remind patients of important appointments or cancellations.
