RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-773-40 (State #04-36067, A26) with the State of California, Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), to amend Agreement #29-772-13 (as amended by subsequent amendments #29-772-14 through #29-772-39) to revise language for the Final Rule and Behavioral Health Treatment and add 2018-2019 capitation rates, with no change in the original amount payable to the County not to exceed $317,472,000 and no change in the term of April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is no fiscal impact, since the original amount payable to County remains at up to $317,472,000 for the Medi-Cal Managed Care Local Initiative Project. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

The State has been contracting with the Health Services Department’s Contra Costa Health Plan to provide health care services to eligible Medi-Cal recipients within the scope of Medi-Cal benefits under the Medi-Cal Local Initiative Health Plan since February 1, 1997.

On April 26, 2005, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard Agreement #29-772-13 with the State of California, DHCS, for the Medi-Cal Local Initiative Health Plan, for the period from April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2021. Subsequent amendments #29-772-14 through #29-772-39 have been issued by DHCS to amend Standard Agreement #29-772-13 to extend the term, add funds, adjust capitation rates and modify language.

Approval of this Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-772-40 will revise language for the Final Rule and Behavioral Health Treatment and add 2018-2019 capitation rates with no change in the payment limit of term through December 31, 2021.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the County will not be able to participate as a Medi-Cal Local Initiative Health Plan.
