| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The Yolo County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) is required to ensure the provision of Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment (EPSDT) community-based services to Medi-Cal eligible children and adolescents in our community. These services are mandated by federal statute and court agreements signed by the state and also align with the county’s commitment to keeping children safe, healthy, at home, in school, and in their communities. Most costly public services are often when children are removed from their homes and placed in residential care and/or hospitalized.
Approval of this Third Amendment is necessary to cover the remaining claims for fiscal year 2020-21 so that the County can continue to provide EPSDT services to Medi-Cal eligible children and adolescents in our community.
Performance Measures included in this Agreement are as follows:

| Competitive Bid Process |
On April 2, 2018, Yolo County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) from qualified community-based organizations to provide Outpatient Mental Health Treatment Services. The RFP was open for 46 days (just over 6 weeks), and staff offered potential bidders an opportunity to ask questions during a Mandatory Bidders’ Conference on April 12, 2018. Bidders were offered the opportunity to submit proposals via the electronic BidSync system or by dropping off a paper proposal directly at HHSA.
HHSA received six proposal(s) from this solicitation. A Proposal Review Committee was formed that included 3 HHSA employees from 2 different HHSA branches. The proposal submitted by CommuniCare Health Centers, Inc. was selected as one of the top choices by all members of the Review Committee and was evaluated and determined to meet all the required qualifications necessary to successfully provide these services.
Separate agreements for the other bids were submitted to the Board of Supervisors for approval. Heritage Oaks and North America Mental Health Services (NAMHS) were the only bids received that were not awarded a contract.
Additional information regarding the Competitive Bid Process is provided below, including a summary of the RFP evaluation criteria.
