Day Treatment and Intensive Day Treatment Service Providers

San Benito County Behavioral Health is soliciting proposals under solicitation BH27-003 for qualified providers to deliver Day Treatment and Day Treatment Intensive (DTI) services for Medi-Cal eligible individuals. These multidisciplinary programs are designed as alternatives to hospitalization and must include assessment, treatment planning, therapy, and psychological rehabilitation. The services must be provided in a facility directly operated by a hospital with a licensed acute psychiatric unit, with a preference for on-campus integration and accessibility via public transportation. The contract is for a three-year term with a possible one-year extension at the discretion of the Behavioral Health Department. The award will be based on the best value and highest rating rather than the lowest price. Funding is provided by fiscal year from July 1 to June 30, and unspent appropriations do not roll over. The contract is contingent upon the availability of County, state, or federal funds, and the County reserves the right to negotiate contractual rates and adjust the scope of services based on budget constraints. Providers must be Medi-Cal certified and comply with various California state regulations, including the Welfare and Institutions Code and Titles 9 and 22 of the California Code of Regulations. Administrative requirements include a net thirty-day payment term from the invoice date and strict adherence to confidentiality and records maintenance standards. Proposers must submit electronic responses via the OpenGov portal by November 9, 2026, including a cover letter, federal tax ID, and proof of Medi-Cal certification. The evaluation process consists of a two-phase approach, beginning with a pass/fail responsiveness analysis of the submission completeness.
