RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-356 with Building Connections Behavioral Health, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $3,200,000, to provide applied behavioral analysis (ABA) services for Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members, for the period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $3,200,000 over a two-year period and will be funded 100% by CCHP Enterprise Fund II revenues.

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized health care services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. This contractor has been a part of the CCHP Provider Network for several years, formerly under a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with CCHP and was required to convert to a County contract.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Under contract 77-356, this contractor will provide ABA services for CCHP members for the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023. This new contract is late because it required significant reviews and multiple revisions prior to approval as to legal form. The contract was approved as to legal form on July 21, 2021.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, certain ABA specialty health care services for CCHP members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County will not be provided.
