#74-315-1
BACKGROUND/REASON(S)FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
The State Department of Mental Health has been working in collaboration with the County's
Mental Health Division to establish a mandated program to provide TBS to children ages 0-21
years of age, who participate in the EPSDT Supplemental Specialty Mental Health services. This
program will provide emergency placement services to eligible Medi-Cal beneficiaries less than
21 years of age, who meet the Mental Health Plan medical necessity criteria, and who have been
discharged from the hospital or have failed in other placements.
On September 11, 2007, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-315 with Community
Options for Families and Youth, Incorporated, for the period from September 1, 2007 through June
30, 2008 (which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2008) for
provision of TBS to County referred clients, ages 18-21 years of age, in East Contra Costa
County.
Approval of Novation Contract #74-315-1 will replace the automatic extension under the prior
contract, and allow the Contractor to continue providing services, through June 30, 2009.
