RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74-341-25(6) with Kelly Bradley, MFT, an individual, in an amount not to exceed $110,000, to provide Medi-Cal specialty mental health services for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 50% Federal Medi-Cal and 50% State General Fund. (Rate increase)

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, services provided to 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.

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.

In August 2013, the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #74-341-25(3) as amended by Contract amendment #74-341-25(4) and #74-341-25(5) with Kelly Bradley, MFT for the provision of Medi-Cal specialty mental health services, for the period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2015.

Approval of Contract #74-341-25(6) will allow Contractor to continue providing mental health services through June 30, 2017.
