| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
This contract allows Yolo County's Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) to purchase four beds at a high quality, affordable, inpatient psychiatric health facility. The beds are available to the County for patient placement without wait times, and are a positive alternative to regional hospitals.
The services provided by North Valley Behavioral Health will be billable to Medi-Cal, and are therefore a more cost-effective option for this important level of care than free-standing psychiatric hospitals whose services are not billable to Medi-Cal, and which would otherwise be used by Yolo County for most inpatient care.
The increased amount for this third amendment is needed to align with actual expenditures for 2017-18. The cost savings will come from another underutilized contract.
