These two (2) amendments with YCCC extend the term through June 30, 2019; increase maximum compensation; and revise and add language where appropriate to clarify and refine the terms, conditions and requirements of these Agreements, specifically as follows:
1. Adult Residential Treatment (Farmhouse) Amendment #4 -
The YCCC Farmhouse facility and program provides long-term residential treatment services to seriously mentally ill adults. The goals of this program are to help clients increase their ability to live independently through skill building, job training and/or other educational programs to further their independence thereby reducing psychiatric hospital stays, Institute for Mental Disease placements, and homelessness.
Effective July 1, 2017, the ACHIP services will be removed from this agreement. The services provided through that contract are now being assumed under other programs and funding.
2. Crisis Residential (Safe Harbor) and After Hours Phone Triage Amendment #6 -
YCCC provides Crisis Residential services to Yolo County consumers experiencing acute or severe psychiatric episodes requiring temporary removal from their home environment, and who meet the mental health medical necessity criteria.
The scope of services for the Crisis Residential (Safe Harbor) services has been modified to include the Housing Placement Assistance with one part-time Housing Navigator to work exclusively with HHSA clients at Safe Harbor on appropriate housing referral and placement including discharge planning per the approved Yolo County Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) grant program.
The After Hours Phone Triage services provides information about services needed to treat urgent conditions; how to access specialty mental health services; and how to use the beneficiary program resolution and Fair Hearing process. There are no changes to this scope of service.
Approval of these amendments will further the Health and Human Services Agency’s efforts to support community-based services and prevent higher cost of care from occurring more than necessary.
