SUBJECT: Approval of Novation Contract #24-818-1 with Bonita House, Inc.
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee
(Donna Wigand, L.C.S.W. ) to execute on behalf of the County,
Novation Contract #24-818-1 with Bonita House, Inc. , for the period
from October 1, 1996 through September 30, 1997, with a payment
limit of $65, 963 , for provision of residential/dual diagnosis
treatment services. This contract includes a six-month automatic
contract extension through March 31, 1998, in the amount of $32,982 .
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is included in the Health Services budget and is
funded by County/Realignment funds.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
It is estimated that as many as 80% of persons with a serious mental
illness also have a substance abuse problem, making this contract
crucial under managed care. Bonita House is the only program of its
type in the Bay Area and has received national recognition.
On January 16, 1996, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard
Contract #24-818 with Bonita House Inc. , for the period from
September 28, 1995 through September 30, 1996 to provide dual
diagnosis residential treatment services. Approval of Novation
Contract #24-818-1 replaces the automatic extension under the prior
Agreement, and will allow Bonita House to continue providing
services through September 30, 1997.
