Financial Impact:
There is no financial impact on the General Fund. The Sheriff’s Office will utilize CALAIM AB133 funds to issue payment to Health Management Associates, Inc.
Background Information:
The California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) Justice Involved Initiative (JI) helps incarcerated people prepare for reentry into their communities. The Tehama County Jail utilized Health Management Associates, Inc. (HMA), a state approved contractor under the CALAIM Program, to prepare the implementation plan as mandated by the state for the inmates to receive these services. The implementation plan that HMA provided has been submitted and approved by the State of California.
HMA is currently working on a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Sheriff’s Office (SO) and Tehama County Health Services Agency (TCHSA), Request for Proposals (RFP) for Pharmacy Services and Electronic Health Records (EHR), as well as writing job classifications for two new positions needed to move forward into the CALAIM JI future.
The CALAIM AB133 funds will pay the invoice issued by HMA for services listed above that were rendered at the Tehama County Jail during December 2024 through January 2025.
