RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #74-191-21 with West Contra Costa Unified School District, a government agency, in an amount not to exceed $749,268, to provide Medi-Cal specialty mental health services for Severely Emotionally Disturbed (SED) children and their families in West Contra Costa County, for the period from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this contract will result in annual budgeted expenditures of up to $749,268 and will be funded as budget by the Department for FY 2024-25 by 100% Federal Medi-Cal.
BACKGROUND:
This contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing Medi-Cal specialty mental health services including child-family team facilitators and other wraparound services for SED children and their families; facilitates multi-agency collaborative service delivery; and minimizes the need for crisis services and involvement with the Juvenile Justice System. West Contra Costa Unified School District has been providing wraparound services to families of SED children for the County since July 2002.
This contract is entered into under and subject to the following legal authorities: Welfare and Institutions Code, § 5600 et seq. (The Bronzan McCorquodale Act); California Code of Regulations (“CCR”), Title 9, § 523 et seq. (Community Mental Health Services) and California Government Code §§ 26227 and 31000. This contract was approved by Health Services Personnel to ensure there is no conflict with labor relations. The Behavioral Health’s Quality Management, Utilization Management and Contract Monitor Staff meet on a regular basis to ensure monitoring and performance measures in the contract are upheld. Per Administrative Bulletin 600.3 the Department has posted a continuous Request for Qualifications and maintains a current qualified list of vendors at all times.
On September 20, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-191-20 with West Contra Costa Unified School District, in the amount not to exceed $749,268 for the provision of Medi-Cal specialty mental health services for SED children in West Contra Costa County for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024.
Approval of Contract #74-191-21 will allow the contractor to continue providing Medi-Cal specialty mental health services through June 30, 2025.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this agreement is not approved, there will be fewer Medi-Cal specialty mental health services available to families of children with serious emotional and behavioral disturbances in West Contra Costa County, which may result in the need for crisis services and involvement with the juvenile justice system.
CHILDREN’S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Children Ready For and Succeeding in School”; “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”. Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS).
