| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
Turning Point Community Programs provides a community-based, outpatient program providing Medi-Cal specialty mental health services (SMHS) to consumers residing in the Pine Tree Gardens Board and Care facilities (PTG B&Cs) who have a history of or are at risk for psychiatric hospitalization and/or placements in Institutions for Mental Disease (IMD). Currently, the County has 27 consumers placed in the PTG B&Cs.
These outpatient specialty mental health services aim to restore, maintain, or improve personal independence and functioning consistent with requirements for learning and development. Services are patterned upon evidence-based or best practice models of treatment, incorporating principles of “recovery” from symptoms of mental illness. The services are provided in a less restrictive environment, allowing consumers to receive appropriate level of services. This also allows the County to achieve cost savings by reducing placements in other higher level/higher cost placements.
The Yolo County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) is requesting approval of this amendment so Turning Point Community Programs may continue to provide these services to vulnerable HHSA consumers through FY2019-20.
The performance measures in the underlying agreement were not revised in this amendment. |
