Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) recommending the Board: 1) Make findings that the provision of services by Telecare Corporation, Inc. (Telecare) to operate and manage the County of El Dorado (County) Psychiatric Health Facility (PHF) are in the public's best interest and that there are specialty skills, qualifications, and equipment not expressly identified in County classifications involved in the performance of the work in accordance with El Dorado County Ordinance Code, Chapter 3.13.030(B); 2) Make findings in accordance with Procurement Policy C-17 Section 3.4(3) exempting the competitive bidding process, because “Competitive bidding would produce no economic benefit to the County”, which will allow continuity in services while the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the provision of services to operate the County PHF is in process; 3) Approve and authorize the Chair to sign Amendment III to competitively procured Agreement for Services 4330 with Telecare, to extend the term by six months through June 30, 2026 increasing the compensation by $3,550,000 for a new maximum obligation of $38,428,086, with the option to extend for another six months through December 31, 2026 and add another $3,550,000 for a total maximum obligation of $41,978,086 if that option is extended, if needed for the completion of the RFP, and update standard contract language; 4) Authorize the Purchasing Agent to execute amendments relating to Agreement 4330, contingent upon approval by County Counsel and Risk Management, which do not increase the maximum dollar amount or term of the Agreement; and 5) Authorize the HHSA Director, or the HHSA Chief Assistant Director, to execute programmatic, administrative, and fiscal documents relating to Agreement 4330.
