alongside others. Individuals served and family members/support persons of individuals served

Wellness and recovery staff and volunteers shall use the Customer-Driven Approach to
Supported Employment model. Wellness and recovery staff will lean upon the SAMSHA
Evidence-Based Practices Kit for Supported Employment for training frontline staff and building

Health. The Coordinator of Vocational Services aids members in determining what type of work
they desire once the Consumer Volunteer Peer Training is completed. This may include an
opportunity to work in the onsite Mini Mart under appropriate supervision to gain employment
skills. The Vocational Coordinator will assist the member in an earnest job search and acts as a
conduit for employment in collaboration with members. Collaborative relationships are

Family Support/Integration Plan
Programming that is specific to family members and other support persons of individuals living
with mental illness is an integral component to the wellness and recovery model for client
populations being served through MHSA. Family support services shall be appropriately tailored
to the age group of the client populations being served. Staffing at Blue Sky includes individuals

V.Staffing Level
The staffing plan for Blue Sky Wellness Center should be clear and concise and allow for
full implementation of all program components. Program components of Blue Sky require the
consultation or staffing of a Licensed Mental Health Clinician to provide oversight to the
program. Any changes in staffing volume must be requested in writing and approved by DBH
Director or designee before implementation.
The Blue Sky and Wellness Center staffing includes the Program Manager, Secretary, Intake
and Support Services Coordinator, Volunteer Coordinator, Vocational Coordinator, Activities
Exhibit A
Coordinator, Case Manager, and Peer Support Specialists. Clinical oversight will be provided by
a designated licensed clinician who provides support to the Center staff on a variety of issues
related to mental illness, including identifying early-onset mental illness in our youth.
Specifically, wellness and recovery staff shall include persons who are bilingual and bicultural in
order to provide culturally and linguistically appropriate strength-based mental health supportive
services that are client and family driven. All bilingual staff will be required to meet the language
proficiency requirements set by County policy. Should a potential client require language
assistance outside the proficiency of the staff, a certified interpreter will be required.
Position titles do not fully define lived experienced as peer or family; a "peer position" is
reflective of lived experience. It is expected that services shall be provided by peer support
specialists and volunteers. All volunteers will participate in a volunteer training program prior to
volunteer service commencing. Staffing patterns should allow for staff specialization in services
to the different age groups and families to be served.

confirm the identity and determine the exclusion status of CONTRACTOR, any
subcontractor, as well as any person with an ownership or control interest, or
who is an agent or managing employee of CONTRACTOR through routine
checks of Federal databases. This includes the Social Security Administration's
Death Master File, the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System
(NPPES), the List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE), the System for Award
Management (SAM), and any other databases as the State or Secretary may
prescribe. These databases must be consulted upon contracting and no less
frequently than monthly thereafter. If the State finds a party that is excluded, it
must promptly notify the CONTRACTOR and take action consistent with §
438.610(c).
The State must ensure that CONTRACTOR with which the State contracts under
this part is not located outside of the United States and that no claims paid by a
CONTRACTOR to a network provider, out-of-network provider, subcontractor or
financial institution located outside of the U.S. are considered in the development
of actuarially sound capitation rates.

National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically
Appropriate Services (CLAS) in Health and Health Care
The National CLAS Standards are intended to advance health equity, improve quality, and help
eliminate health care disparities by establishing a blueprint for health and health care organizations to:
Principal Standard:
1.Provide effective, equitable, understandable, and respectful quality care and services that are responsive to diverse cultural health beliefs and
practices, preferred languages, health literacy, and other communication needs.
Governance, Leadership, and Workforce:
2.Advance and sustain organizational governance and leadership that promotes CLAS and health equity through policy, practices, and
allocated resources.
3.Recruit, promote, and support a culturally and linguistically diverse governance, leadership, and workforce that are responsive to the population in
the service area.
4.Educate and train governance, leadership, and workforce in culturally and linguistically appropriate policies and practices on an ongoing basis.
Communication and Language Assistance:
5.Offer language assistance to individuals who have limited English proficiency and/or other communication needs, at no cost to them, to facilitate
timely access to all health care and services.
6.Inform all individuals of the availability of language assistance services clearly and in their preferred language, verbally and in writing.
7.Ensure the competence of individuals providing language assistance, recognizing that the use of untrained individuals and/or minors as interpreters
should be avoided.
8.Provide easy-to-understand print and multimedia materials and signage in the languages commonly used by the populations in the service area.
Engagement, Continuous Improvement, and Accountability:
9.Establish culturally and linguistically appropriate goals, policies, and management accountability, and infuse them throughout the organization’s
planning and operations.
10.Conduct ongoing assessments of the organization’s CLAS-related activities and integrate CLAS-related measures into measurement and continuous
quality improvement activities.
11.Collect and maintain accurate and reliable demographic data to monitor and evaluate the impact of CLAS on health equity and outcomes and to
inform service delivery.
12.Conduct regular assessments of community health assets and needs and use the results to plan and implement services that respond to the
cultural and linguistic diversity of populations in the service area.
13.Partner with the community to design, implement, and evaluate policies, practices, and services to ensure cultural and linguistic appropriateness.
14.Create conflict and grievance resolution processes that are culturally and linguistically appropriate to identify, prevent, and resolve conflicts
or complaints.
15.Communicate the organization’s progress in implementing and sustaining CLAS to all stakeholders, constituents, and the general public.

The Case for the National CLAS Standards
Health equity is the attainment of the highest level of health for all people.1 Currently, individuals across the United States from various cultural
backgrounds are unable to attain their highest level of health for several reasons, including the social determinants of health, or those conditions in which
individuals are born, grow, live, work, and age,2 such as socioeconomic status, education level, and the availability of health services.3
Though health inequities are directly related to the existence of historical and current discrimination
and social injustice, one of the most modifiable factors is the lack of culturally and linguistically
appropriate services, broadly defined as care and services that are respectful of and responsive to
the cultural and linguistic needs of all individuals.
Health inequities result in disparities that directly affect the quality of life for all individuals. Health
disparities adversely affect neighborhoods, communities, and the broader society, thus making
the issue not only an individual concern but also a public health concern. In the United States, it
has been estimated that the combined cost of health disparities and subsequent deaths due to
inadequate and/or inequitable care is $1.24 trillion.4
Culturally and linguistically appropriate services are increasingly recognized as effective in improving
the quality of care and services.5,6 By providing a structure to implement culturally and linguistically
appropriate services, the National CLAS Standards will improve an organization’s ability to address
health care disparities.
The National CLAS Standards align with the HHS Action Plan to Reduce Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities7 and the National Stakeholder Strategy for
Achieving Health Equity,8 which aim to promote health equity through providing clear plans and strategies to guide collaborative efforts that address racial
and ethnic health disparities across the country.
Similar to these initiatives, the National CLAS Standards are intended to advance health equity, improve quality, and help eliminate health care disparities
by providing a blueprint for individuals and health and health care organizations to implement culturally and linguistically appropriate services. Adoption of
these Standards will help advance better health and health care in the United States.
Of all the forms of
inequality, injustice in
health care is the most
shocking and inhumane.
— Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

FRESNO COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH PLAN
Grievances
Fresno County Mental Health Plan (MHP) provides beneficiaries with a grievance and
appeal process and an expedited appeal process to resolve grievances and disputes at
the earliest and the lowest possible level.
Title 9 of the California Code of Regulations requires that the MHP and its fee-for-service
providers give verbal and written information to Medi-Cal beneficiaries regarding the
following:
•How to access specialty mental health services
•How to file a grievance about services
•How to file for a State Fair Hearing
The MHP has developed a Consumer Guide, a beneficiary rights poster, a grievance
form, an appeal form, and Request for Change of Provider Form. All of these
beneficiary materials must be posted in prominent locations where Medi-Cal
beneficiaries receive outpatient specialty mental health services, including the waiting
rooms of providers’ offices of service.
Please note that all fee-for-service providers and contract agencies are required to give
the individuals served copies of all current beneficiary information annually at the time
their treatment plans are updated and at intake.
Beneficiaries have the right to use the grievance and/or appeal process without any
penalty, change in mental health services, or any form of retaliation. All Medi-Cal
beneficiaries can file an appeal or state hearing.
Grievances and appeals forms and self addressed envelopes must be available for
beneficiaries to pick up at all provider sites without having to make a verbal or written
request. Forms can be sent to the following address:
Fresno County Mental Health Plan
P.O. Box 45003
Fresno, CA 93718-9886
(800) 654-3937 (for more information)
(559) 488-3055 (TTY)
Provider Problem Resolution and Appeals Process
The MHP uses a simple, informal procedure in identifying and resolving provider
concerns and problems regarding payment authorization issues, other complaints and
concerns.
Informal provider problem resolution process – the provider may first speak to a Provider
Relations Specialist (PRS) regarding his or her complaint or concern.
Exhibit I
Page 2 of 2
The PRS will attempt to settle the complaint or concern with the provider. If the attempt
is unsuccessful and the provider chooses to forego the informal grievance process, the
provider will be advised to file a written complaint to the MHP address (listed above).
Formal provider appeal process – the provider has the right to access the provider
appeal process at any time before, during, or after the provider problem resolution
process has begun, when the complaint concerns a denied or modified request for MHP
payment authorization, or the process or payment of a provider’s claim to the MHP.
Payment authorization issues – the provider may appeal a denied or modified request
for payment authorization or a dispute with the MHP regarding the processing or
payment of a provider’s claim to the MHP. The written appeal must be submitted to the
MHP within 90 calendar days of the date of the receipt of the non-approval of payment.
The MHP shall have 60 calendar days from its receipt of the appeal to inform the
provider in writing of the decision, including a statement of the reasons for the decision
that addresses each issue raised by the provider, and any action required by the
provider to implement the decision.
If the appeal concerns a denial or modification of payment authorization request, the
MHP utilizes a Managed Care staff who was not involved in the initial denial or
modification decision to determine the appeal decision.
If the Managed Care staff reverses the appealed decision, the provider will be asked to
submit a revised request for payment within 30 calendar days of receipt of the decision
Other complaints – if there are other issues or complaints, which are not related to
payment authorization issues, providers are encouraged to send a letter of complaint to
the MHP. The provider will receive a written response from the MHP within 60 calendar
days of receipt of the complaint. The decision rendered buy the MHP is final.
INCIDENT REPORTING
PROTOCOL FOR COMPLETION OF INCIDENT REPORT
The Incident Report must be completed for all incidents involving individuals served through
DBH’s current incident reporting portal, Logic Manager, at
https://fresnodbh.logicmanager.com/incidents/?t=9&p=1&k=182be0c5cdcd5072bb1864cdee
4d3d6e
•The reporting portal is available 24 hours a day, every day.
•Any employee of the CONTRACTOR can submit an incident using the reporting
portal at any time. No login is required.
•The designated administrator of the CONTRACTOR can add information to the
follow up section of the report after submission.
•When an employee submits an incident within 24 hours from the time of the incident
or first knowledge of the incident, the CONTRACTOR’s designated administrator, the
assigned contract analyst and the Incident Reporting email inbox will be notified
immediately via email from the Logic Manager system that there is a new incident to
review.
•Meeting the 24 hour incident reporting requirements will be easier as there are no
signatures to collect.
•The user guide attached identifies the reporting process and the reviewer process,
and is subject to updates based on DBH’s selected incident reporting portal system.
Questions about incident reporting, how to use the incident reporting portal, or
designating/changing the name of the administrator who will review incidents for the
CONTRACTOR should be emailed to DBHIncidentReporting@fresnocountyca.gov and the
assigned contract analyst.

INCIDENT REVIEWER ROLE – User Guide
Fresno County Department of Behavioral Health (DBH) requires all of its county-operated and contracted
providers (through the Mental Health Plan (MHP) and Substance Use Disorder (SUD) services) to complete
a written report of any incidents compromising the health and safety of persons served, employees, or
community members.
Yes! Incident reports will now be made through an on online reporting portal hosted by Logic Manager. It’s
an easier way for any employee to report an incident at any time. A few highlights:
•No supervisor signature is immediately required.
•Additional information can be added to the report by the program supervisor/manager without
having to resubmit the incident.
•When an incident is submitted, the assigned contract analyst, program supervisor/manager,
clinical supervisor and the DBHIncidentReporting mailbox automatically receives an email
notification of a new incident and can log in any time to review the incident. Everything that
was on the original paper/electronic form matches the online form.
•Do away with submitting a paper version with a signature.
•This online submission allows for timely action for the health and safety of the persons-served,
as well as compliance with state reporting timelines when necessary.
As an Incident Reviewer, the responsibility is to:
•Log in to Logic Manager and review incident submitted within 48 hours of notification of incident.
•Review incident for clarity, missing information and add in additional information deemed
appropriate.
•Notify DBHIncidentReporting@fresnocountyca.gov if there is additional information to be report
after initial submission
•Contact DBHIncidentReporting@fresnocountyca.gov if there are any concerns, questions or
comments with Logic Manager or incident reporting.
