Reason for Recommended Action/Background

On July 10, 2018, the Yolo County Board of Supervisors (“Board”) approved the underlying Agreement (“Agreement No. 18-154”) with Communicare Health Centers, Inc. for the provision of Intensive Outpatient, Outpatient Services, Case Management, Physician Consultation, Recovery Services, and In-Person Screening/Referral Services. These services are part of the Adult Substance Use Disorder Continuum of Care.

Approval of this first amendment (“First Amendment”) to Agreement No. 18-154 revises the rate table to remove language that does not apply to the provision of services. Also, the First Amendment revises and clarifies language regarding option years to align with guidance provided by the Yolo County Procurement Manager to ensure transparency regarding 1) potential future costs via option years and 2) the Yolo County Health and Human Services Agency Director’s authority to exercise those options.

Collaborations (including Board advisory groups and external partner agencies)

County Counsel has approved this First Amendment as to form.

Additionally, Agreement 18-154 provided for the following services and funding amounts:

Scope of Services	FY 18-19 July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019	FY 19-20 July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020	Total
