Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) recommending the Board: 1) Adopt and authorize the Chair to sign Resolution 230-2024, which will repeal and replace Resolution 028-2020, which delegates authority to the HHSA Director, or Chief Assistant Director, to execute Specialty Mental Health Services Short-Term Residential Treatment Program (STRTP) Single Case Agreements with other counties and out-of-county STRTP-certified providers, utilizing the County Counsel and Risk Management approved contract templates attached in the Resolution, when urgent out-of-County client placements are needed, as follows: a) Authorizes the use of the STRTP Single Case Agreement (SCA) template for use with other counties to place a client in need of services (attachment A of the Resolution) and the STRTP Admission Agreement (AA) template for use with out-of-County STRTP providers to place a client in need of services (attachment B of the Resolution); b) Authorizes the term of the STRTP SCA and AA Agreements to be effective one-year from execution by all parties, with the start date to begin effective on the client’s admission date into the STRTP, allowing a retroactive start date (if needed) based upon a client’s need for emergency placement, with the option to extend the agreement’s term an additional six-months if needed for continued client care, for an initial not to exceed amount of $200,000 for the one-year term, and a total maximum obligation not to exceed $300,000 if the six-month extension is granted, for the total term not to exceed 18-months; and c) Authorizes the HHSA Director, or Chief Assistant Director, to execute the finalized agreements utilizing the STRTP SCA and STRTP AA agreement templates, including any amendments, which do not increase the maximum dollar amount of the agreements beyond $300,000 or term of the agreements beyond 18-months, and any administrative, and fiscal documents relating to these agreements, contingent upon approval of any template changes by County Counsel and Risk Management, as applicable; and 2) Make findings in accordance with Procurement Policy C-17 Section 3.4(3) exempting the competitive bidding process for the resulting STRTP SCA and AA Agreements, with Purchasing Agent concurrence, as competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County.
