RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Novation Contract #74–286–22 which includes mutual indemnification with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $6,583,129, to provide adult residential services and treatment to adults with Severe and Persistent Mental Illness (SPMI), for the period from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023, which includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2023 in an amount not to exceed $3,291,564.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in budgeted annual expenditures of up to $6,583,129 for FY 2022-2023 and will be funded by 87% Mental Health Realignment Funds ($5,712,518), 10% Federal Medi-Cal ($641,117), and 3% State Mental Health Services Act ($229,494).

BACKGROUND:

The Behavioral Health Services Department has been contracting with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., since January 2007 to provide transitional residential treatment, rehabilitative services, medication support, and mental health services to SPMI adult clients. This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing transitional residential treatment, rehabilitative services, medication support, and mental health services to SPMI adult clients at its Crestwood Healing Center.

On January 11, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74–286–21 with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $657,610 for the provision of day treatment and mental health services to SPMI adults for the period from January 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2022 in an amount not to exceed $657,610.

Approval of Novation Contract #74–286–22 will replace the automatic extension under the prior contract and allow this contractor to continue providing services and an additional 94 beds for adult residential services through June 30, 2023. This contract includes mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for any claims arising out of the performance of this contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County’s SPMI clients will have reduced access to the mental health treatment and residential services that they require.
