Summary & Background (First sentence includes Agency recommendation. Provide an executive summary of the action that gives an overview of the relevant details for the item.)
Scope of Work: The Department of Behavioral Health & Developmental Disabilities recommends approval of the Contractors that are qualified to enter into a contractual agreement to help the County drive towards its purpose: to increase access to behavioral health services, establish a County-wide provider network, and strengthen the experience of clients seeking behavioral health services from Fulton County. The Fulton County Department of BHDD has expanded services beyond Core Outpatient to include School-based therapy, Text 4 Help, Permanent Supportive Housing wrap around services, DUI Treatment Court, Misdemeanor Mental Health Court, and screening & Re-entry services. The department continues to operate grant programs funded by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health & Developmental Disabilities to include Clubhouse for Youth and Early Intervention HIV Testing. In addition, the department implemented two federally grant-funded programs: Comprehensive Opioid Stimulant, and Substance Abuse Site-based Program (COSSAP) and MINORITY AIDS INITIATIVE: Substance Use Disorder Treatment for Racial/Ethnic Minority Populations at High Risk for HIV/AIDS. Currently the Department of BHDD seeks multiple providers to continue delivering high quality care to more residents in a cost-effective manner, expand and strengthen the Fulton County behavioral health provider network, and improve outcomes. Services under this contract will include a full array of mental health & substance use disorder treatment for children, adolescents, and adults, evidenced based, outcome driven with the ability to deliver culturally competent care to all County residents. Based on Fulton County’s population, services should include considerations for special populations, including individuals who are unsheltered, Veterans, justice-involved, incarcerated, and youth. In addition to these critical services, the County desires to drive effective care coordination across its contracted network of providers, with a particular focus on individuals demonstrating elevated risk and/or transitioning between challenging environments.
The detailed cost for each service per Service Provider is attached as Exhibit 1.
