Financial Impact:
There is no financial impact on the General Fund. Probation will utilize CalAIM PATH 3 funds to issue payment to Health Management Associates, Inc. (HMA).
Background Information:
The California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) Justice Involved Initiative (JI) supports incarcerated youth in preparing for successful reentry into their communities. To facilitate this effort, the Tehama County Probation Department has partnered with HMA, a State-approved contractor under the CalAIM initiative, to develop an implementation plan ensuring access to health care services for incarcerated youth. This plan has been submitted and approved by the State of California.
HMA has provided valuable consultation on multiple aspects of the initiative, including the development of Requests for Proposals (RFP) for Pharmacy Services and an Electronic Health Records (EHR) system. Additionally, they have assisted in drafting job classifications for two new positions, essential to advancing the CalAIM initiative. Their expertise and support are helping the Juvenile Detention Facility move closer to meeting the State's CalAIM requirements.
CalAIM PATH 3 funds will pay invoices issued by HMA for services rendered to the Tehama County Probation Department.
