Subject:Novation Contract #24–238–48 with Mental Health Consumer Concerns, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
with Mental Health Consumer Concerns, Inc., for the period from July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, which
included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2012, for the provision of a Patients’ Rights
Program.
Approval of Novation Contract #24–238–48 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the
Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2013.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, County will not have a Patients’ Rights Advocacy Program and will be out of
compliance with the performance contract with the State Department of Mental Health, putting funding for the
Department’s mental health programs at risk.
