Approve and authorize the Chair, Board of Supervisors, to execute, on behalf of the
County, Standard Contract #24-373-7 with Crestwood Hospitals, Inc. in the amount of
$2,536,525 for the period from October 1, 1992 through June 30, 1993 for admission

II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is included in the Health Services Department's Fiscal Year 1992-93
Budget, and the funding source is County/Realignment 100%.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
Effective July 1, 1992, State Mental Health Realignment Legislation shifted
responsibility for payment to providers from the State to the Counties and required
Counties to assume direct responsibility for contracting with sub-acute skilled
nursing facilities known as Institutions for the Mentally Diseased (IMD) .
On July 28, 1992, the Board approved Interim Contract #24-373-6 with Crestwood
Hospitals,. Inc. , for admission and intensive day treatment of County-referred
mentally disturbed persons who are in need of sub-acute skilled nursing care in an
IMD.
Approval of Standard Contract #24-373-7, which has been been approved as to legal
form by the County Counsel's Office, will allow Contractor to provide services
through the end of this fiscal year.
As directed by the Board, the Department is preparing an RFP to seek lower costs and
more programmatically relevant services.
