RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #74–196–21 with Anka Behavioral Health, Incorporated, a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $663,561, to provide outpatient Medi-Cal drug treatment services, for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded by 40% Federal Drug Medi-Cal; 40% State Drug Medi-Cal; 14% Assembly Bill 109; 6% Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing specialized substance abuse treatment services so that adults with co-occurring mental disorders are provided an opportunity to achieve sobriety and recover from the effects of alcohol and other drug use, become self-sufficient, and return to their families as productive individuals.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On July 18, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74–196–19, (as amended by Contract Amendment Agreement #74-196-20) with Anka Behavioral Health, Incorporated, to provide Medi-Cal drug abuse treatment services for the period from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

Approval of Contract #74–196–21 will allow the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County residents with co-occurring substance abuse and psychiatric disorders will not have access to Contractor’s services, which may result in a reduction in the overall levels of service to the community.
