Body
DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION
Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) recommending the Board approve and authorize the Chair to sign Amendment 2 to Agreement for Services 086-S1511 with Progress House, Inc. HHSA receives funding under an Agreement with the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) for the provision of Substance Use Disorder prevention and treatment, which mandates HHSA to make substance abuse treatment services available to Medi-Cal beneficiaries. Approval of this Amendment is recommended to continue the provision of mandated alcohol and drug counseling and treatment services for both existing and future clients, as well as to add a new detoxification service.
