Adult Residential Treatment and Crisis Residential Treatment Service Providers

San Benito County Behavioral Health is soliciting proposals under solicitation BH27-001 for the provision of Adult Residential Treatment (ART) and Crisis Residential Treatment Services (CRTS). These services are designed for adults aged 18 to 65 plus who are experiencing acute psychiatric crises and require short-term, intensive, supportive care in a home-like environment. The contractor must be certified by the California Department of Health Care Services and licensed by the California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, ensuring compliance with Title 9 of the California Code of Regulations for Medi-Cal clients. The contract is structured as a multi-year agreement with an initial three-year term and a possible one-year extension at the discretion of the Behavioral Health Department. Funding is provided on a fiscal year basis from July 1 to June 30, and unspent appropriations do not roll over. The County will award the contract based on best value rather than the lowest price, utilizing a two-phase evaluation process consisting of a pass/fail responsiveness check followed by a scored evaluation and potential interviews. Proposers must submit their responses electronically via the OpenGov portal, including a separate PDF fee proposal with daily rates and an itemized cost list. Key compliance requirements include adherence to HIPAA, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and various federal non-discrimination laws, with a requirement to maintain records for three years following the final payment.
