for the period from April 1, 1996 through December 31, 1997, to be

the provision of professional outpatient psychotherapy services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded by Contra Costa Health Plan member
premiums. Costs depend upon utilization. As appropriate,
patients and/or third party payors will be billed for services.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
The Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) has an obligation to provide
professional outpatient psychotherapy services for CCHP members
with mental health therapy services as a covered benefit. This

enrolled in the Health Plan.
A recent Request for Proposal (RFP) was used to identify
therapists who have the experience, special skills and

formalize the relationship between CCHP and the providers
identified in the RFP process.
Approval of Non-Physician Services Contract #27-153 will allow
this Contractor to provide professional outpatient psychotherapy
services through December 31, 1997 .
