Rural Outpatient Services
SCOPE OF WORK
Promesa will provide evidence-based, quality outpatient treatment services to rural adult
residents in Fresno County. Promesa further understands that the purpose is to increase participation in
Drug Court recommended assessments, treatment planning and treatment services.
In order to meet this objective, Promesa proposes to provide Promesa’s TOADS program, a
telecare driven service in rural Fresno, supported by on-site sessions. Promesa will implement as
follows:
1. SUD services to rural Fresno County residents (male/female) when it is determined that
services are medically necessary.
i. Enrolled clients will be assessed to determine medical necessity for treatment
determined by board certified physicians.
ii. Once medical necessity is established, clients are placed into a treatment program
(preferably telecare).
iii. Medical necessity is determined by medical review and through assessments using the
DSM-V for diagnosis as well as ASAM levels to determine level of care.
iv. If medical necessity is not established, clinical staff refer clients to a lower level of care;
staff actively assists clients to make these linkages.
v. Telecare treatment is supported by a minimum of 3 onsite, individual meetings. The on-
site in-person meetings are the intake/assessment/placement in treatment, continuous
treatment plan reviews and a treatment completion/ discharge planning interview.
Clients will remain active as long as medical necessity for treatment is determined and
signed off by the Medical Director (the Justification To Continue Treatment Services).
TOADS follows both ASAM protocols and MediCal procedures for treatment
continuation. ASAM calls for continuous review of dimensions of level of care while
MediCal requires review every 90 days for treatment planning updates.
vi. Through telecare treatment, SUD clients will identify and accept their use and
dependence.
vii. Through telecare treatment, SUD clients will come to understand the dynamics of the
addictive process and the outcomes/results of addiction on self, family and
employability.
viii. Through successful completion of telecare based treatment, SUD clients will emerge to
lead productive, self-sufficient and substance free lifestyles.
2. SUD services meet all applicable regulations and standards.
3. SUD services are delivered in line with CLAS standards.
4. SUD services are delivered under DMC certification.
5. SUD clients will have at least 1 diagnosis from the ASAM and/or DSM for Substance Related
and Addictive Disorders.
6. SUD services will begin between 30-60 days of notice of award and contract execution.
7. SUD services will be provided primarily in the communities of Firebaugh/Mendota and
Coalinga/Huron, with satellite sites in other rural communities, as need arises.
8. SUD services are provided in the threshold languages prevalent in the County. In the
identified services areas (Firebaugh/Mendota, Coalinga/Huron) the threshold language is
Spanish. For clients who are in need of another language, Promesa draws from local
resources to assist. Additionally, services are provided in compliance with the Americans
Exhibit B Page2 with Disabilities Act provisions. All of Promesa’s facilities are accessible. In the event that a
client is deaf or hard of hearing, the agency contracts with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
Services for sign language services. In providing telecare, if a deaf/hard of hearing client is
referred, ongoing sign interpretation is arranged for that client.
9. Promesa has existing, County-approved CLAS policies. Further, all services are provided with
cultural competency/humility as a standard, using members of the diverse staff and/or
contracting with ethnically and linguistically skilled professionals in the community.
10. SUD clients are provided with a copy of the agency’s grievance policies and process as part of
their intake and admission to treatment. The grievance policy is included in the client’s
copies of their treatment agreement. All grievance procedures are posted in agency offices,
in threshold languages.
11. SUD services will be delivered at community locations identified in the RFP and through
negotiated collation agreements with community based organizations.
Experience and knowledge of adult outpatient drug free services, using evidence based practices and
outcome informed treatments.
Promesa’s Telecare Outpatient Alcohol and Drug Services (TOADS) will serve rural Fresno County
residents needing SUD treatment. All treatment services are outpatient.
To ensure success in treatment outcomes for clients, Promesa utilizes several evidenced based
approaches to treatment for substance use, use or addiction, detailed below:
A. Treatment Modalities are behavioral approaches. Promesa meets clients were they are and
are in the “here and now”. Behavioral interventions help adults actively participate in their
recovery from use and addiction, enhancing abilities to resist drug use. One main behavioral
approach is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT strategies are based on the theory that
learning processes play a critical role in the development of problem behaviors like drug
use. Thus, Psycho-education continuously educates about substances and the harm they
cause to the body. Clients learn how to anticipate problems and develop effective coping
strategies. They may be assisted in this by the Peer Support Specialist.
B. In CBT, adults explore the positive and negative consequences of using drugs. They learn to
recognize distorted thinking patterns and triggers of use; identify and anticipate high-risk
situations; and apply self-disciplined skills. Skills including practical problem solving, anger
management, emotional regulation and refusal.
C. Another behavioral approach modality is Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET), that
supports adolescents and adults to resolve their uncertainty about engaging in treatment
and abandoning their drug use. MET includes an initial assessment of motivation to
participate in treatment, where counselor supports the client to develop a desire to
participate by providing non-confrontational feedback and is to strengthen motivation and
build a plan for change. Both of these Evidence-Based approaches yield successful outcomes
when conjoined.
D. Promesa also utilizes the MATRIX Model, a proven effective, evidence based protocol,
particularly for cocaine and methamphetamine addicts. Its design is intensive outpatient
program services, using telecare-based treatment that covers 6 key clinical areas
(individual/conjoint therapy, early recovery, relapse prevention, family education, social
support and urine testing). MATRIX runs from 16-52 weeks of treatment, depending upon
client success. MATRIX is a directive, behavior-focused treatment approach, applied to
adult clients.
Exhibit B Page3 Services will be delivered by a multidisciplinary, culturally competent staff and will include a broad
array of medical, mental health and recovery-centered supports based on the cognitive behavioral
model of treatment applied to telecare services:
o Risk-focused assessments, covering mental health and substance use;
o Psychiatric assessment, recovery plan through telecare treatment;
o Medication administration and management, when deemed necessary, is under supervision of
aboard certified psychiatrist, Herbert A Cruz, MD (this is done through in person consultations);
o Family and support system engagement via individualized telecare;
o Individualized treatment plans, which also focuses on the process of awakening hope and
enlivening the recovery journey which will be covered in the initial intake and assessment, then
delivered through telecare. The goal of TOADS is to provide a recovery-oriented, trauma-informed
learning environment that promotes independence, self-responsibility and self-determination
through participating in a telecare treatment program;
o Noncompliant Clients -- Staff addresses non-compliant participants in several ways. If non-
compliance is determined to be the result of resistance to electronically based treatment,
counselors will add a schedule of direct individual and/or group sessions. If non-compliance is
determined to be a lack of commitment to treatment, counselors will discuss the ‘stages of
commitment or readiness’ (URICA) with clients, assisting clients to understand where they are on
a ‘readiness’ scale. Staff may guide clients toward treatment while maintaining them on a
caseload. Non-compliant clients will continue to receive messaging from both the assigned
counselor and the Peer Support Specialist (PSS) on a weekly basis. Staff will contact clients who
change phone numbers through mail and/or alternative contact identified during the admissions
interview;
o Transitions of care -- are handled by securing client agreements to amend their treatment plan,
along with an accompanying diagnosis supported by the DSM and/or ASAM. Staff will guide
clients needing higher levels of care, generally residential treatment to choose an appropriate
placement. Staff initiates a referral to a local facility, with the client present. Staff will track the
referral until client is admitted to residential treatment or a program providing intensive
outpatient treatment.
o Staff will transition clients needing lower levels of care, yet still meeting medical
necessity, into aftercare services. These clients still need contact with the treatment
team to ensure commitment to recovery goals, while meeting less often. Lower levels of
care may include additional contacts by the PSS.
o Timeframes, revised: Staff shall maintain clients in active status in telecare services as
long as they meet medical necessity for SUD treatment. During the admissions interview,
clients and counselors determine the frequency of sessions.
o Staff will schedule discharge planning sessions when either clients or counselors
determine that treatment goals were met and recovery is progressing to the client’s
satisfaction and can realistically be sustained by the client.
o Additional notes on the telecare resources integrated into TOADS. Promesa will utilize the
resources and curricula available through Hazelden, which offers a plethora of addiction
treatment and recovery materials and resources to agencies (and clients). For example, Hazelden
offers tremendous amount of digital resources:
o THE DAILY PLEDGE: PEOPLE HELPING PEOPLE 24/7
o Interact with others who are establishing lives and families free from addiction. Clients
may Access chats, online meetings, discussions and healthy check-in activities any day,
any time, from anywhere. Clients may participate as anonymously, if they prefer. This
Exhibit B Page4 resource is similar to Facebook. Clients may post pictures and videos, post blogs and
comment on discussions. It’s free.
o Hazelden's Social Community (SC)
o Similar to the Daily Pledge, the SC is a free online resource for anyone with a genuine
interest in recovery from addiction, including those seeking recovery, maintaining
recovery, working professionally in the field (or supporting friends or loved ones) in
recovery. This unique community is home to daily recovery meetings, a lively discussion
board, blogs by industry professionals, a book club with special offers and, most notably,
a collection of supportive peers
o Mobile Apps
o With Hazelden’s mobile applications, clients will find the instant motivation needed to
strengthen recovery and inspire personal growth no matter where they are (both
geographically and stage of recovery). Promesa’s telecare staff utilizes Hazelden’s mobile
apps to support their counseling with clients.
o eBooks
o Clients are invited to explore Hazelden’s vast library of tablet and mobile-friendly reading
resources available to help people recognize, understand and overcome addiction and
closely related issues.
o Online Meetings
o Hazelden - Clients, who desire more online meetings than are available through Promesa,
are advised that 1. if they participate in Hazelden’s online meetings to supplement their
recovery goals, AND 2. Want their online meeting attendance to count toward a court-
ordered requirement, 3. Hazelden will provide confirmation of participation. Clients will
be asked to provide a release of information to permit Promesa to obtain a record of
these supplemental meetings.
Oher AA websites offer online AA/NA meetings, with information on these
resources provided to clients.
o Podcasts
o Podcasts of recovery related discussions, ideas and resources are routinely posted.
o After care – Staff transitions clients to aftercare when it is determined that recovery is
progressing and clients seem to need fewer contacts. Thus, aftercare is a step down in counseling
sessions, instead of weekly or bi-monthly, sessions are monthly. Check-ins with clients before and
after ‘troublesome’ anniversary dates or cultural celebrations would also occur in aftercare. For
many clients, anniversaries (weddings, deaths, divorces are triggers, along with cultural events
that are often celebrated with alcohol – Cinco de Mayo, Sept. 16th, Dia de los Muertos).
o Additionally, clients will be encouraged to participate in locally available 12-step activities
(AA/NA, Celebrate Recovery or other groups; staff will research available
activities/schedules and provide information to clients). These recovery programs are
very effective in helping clients maintain their sobriety goals.
o Clients would also receive support from the Peer Support Specialist, who would send
texts, inspirational messages and other electronic encouragements.
o After care will continue as long as medical necessity is present, as determined by ASAM level of
care reviews and DSM assessments.
o Further, counseling staff and the peer support specialist will connect clients to these additional
resources to sustain the progress they have made in recovery.
o In serving clients through electronic resources, Promesa has found that providing clients with
access to vetted, high quality online resources aids in recovery, one key resource is:
Exhibit B Page5 http://drugabuse.com/?s=after+care. Staff also conducts random drug testing for client
accountability.
o Alumni of the telecare program are encouraged to participate in:
Alumni meetings as a component of the aftercare plan
Attend alumni contact/events/activities, such as
Recovery Book club
Dinners
Picnics
Recovery workshops
Volunteer –Tell your story of recovery to current clients in treatment
Sign up to receive informative emails from Hazelden, from staff and from the Peer
Support Specialist.
By providing online real-time, interactive audio and video-based alcohol and drug use
treatment, TOADS brings electronic, web based, mobile treatment to its clients. TOADS is designed to be
ideal for anyone who is seeking an alternative to traditional treatment programs, who is unable to access
traditional treatment programs (due to transportation difficulties, lack of locally available services or
inability to pay for treatment). TOADS uses a proven treatment approach that is based on cognitive
behavioral therapy, supported by strong connections to other successful treatment strategies, such as the
12-Step philosophy. Online sessions present information on relapse prevention, medical aspects of
addiction, anger management and other topics.
The evidenced based treatment modality utilized by Promesa in addiction treatment is
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is an empirically supported treatment that focuses on patterns
of thinking that are maladaptive and the beliefs that underlie such thinking. For example, a person who is
depressed may have the belief, "I’m worthless," and a person with a phobia may have the belief, "I am in
danger." While the person in distress likely holds such beliefs with great conviction, with a therapist’s help,
the individual is encouraged to view such beliefs as hypotheses rather than facts and to test out such
beliefs by running experiments. Telecare aids in changing these thought patterns by giving patients more
frequent access to a counselor (than the typical once a week or once a month appointment). Continuous
contact through texting and voice messaging enables the client to perhaps more quickly establish new
behavioral patterns.
As an added benefit, telecare has the potential to greatly decrease the cost of traditional face-
to-face therapy while still maintaining effectiveness. The combination of low cost, ease of use, and
accessibility in a society that values the use of instant communication make telecare therapy plausible for
rural patients. Telecare has proved an effective tool in reaching patients of all age groups – even seniors
who respond well to technological additions to treatment and access to their treatment team.
In Promesa’s experience in implementing in telecare, Promesa found that the benefits of
‘mobile’ therapy lie in its ability to help patients receive more individual attention from addiction
counselors. Because, as a means not only of communication but also of getting, exchanging information,
being entertained irrespective of social class or literacy level, smart phone usage is a ubiquitous presence
in life -- these benefits combine effortlessly considering society’s increasing tendency to communicate via
text messaging as opposed to voice conversations. The combination of instant communication, availability,
and user friendliness contribute to the effectiveness of telecare.
The addiction counselors at Promesa have observed client responses to cognitive-behavioral
therapies (CBTs) to be positive and produce successful treatment outcomes. CBT is among the most
frequently evaluated approaches used to treat substance use disorders, has been shown to be effective
with all types of substance users, especially those 18-30 who have more affinity for electronic
Exhibit B Page6 communication and are comfortable with instant messaging, texting, e-mailing, tweeting, Facebook® and
other forms of electronic connecting. Promesa’s clients respond well to telecare based CBT, because:
o It is based on social learning and behavioral theories of drug use
o The basic approach is "recognize, avoid, and cope" these learning strategies are
o Easily communicated via telecommunications
o Treatment is organized around a functional analysis of substance use; i.e.,
o Understanding substance use with respect to its antecedents and consequences,
o Insights are amenable to text messaging, for example.
o Skills training -- that is easily reinforced through web-enabled mobile phones -- is
o Focused on strategies for coping with craving, fostering motivation to change,
o Managing thoughts about drugs, developing problem solving skills, planning for and managing
high-risk situations, identifying apparently irrelevant decisions, and
o Cultivating drug refusal skills.
o Underlying principles of CBT are that:
(a) Basic skills should be mastered before more complex ones are given,
(b) Material presented by the addiction counselor is matched to patient needs,
(c) Repetition fosters the development of skills which are easy to deliver by web based
methods,
(d) Since practice is needed for mastery of skills, patients get more reinforcement from
addiction counselors,
(e) The patient is an active client in treatment, and
(f) Skills taught are generalizable to a variety of problem areas.
Researchers have noted that there is nothing inherent in CBT that would make it inappropriate for
use with diverse clients. Promesa’s bilingual/bicultural substance use counselors have successfully
utilized CBT with many of the Latino, Asian, Native and African American clients. In fact, the specific
ways in which CBT may be particularly useful for multicultural clients:
• CBT emphasizes the uniqueness of the individual: At its core, CBT argues that the treatment
should be adapted to meet the needs of the individual.
• CBT focuses on client empowerment: The inherent belief that clients are in control and,
therefore, capable of bringing about change themselves helps create a collaborative relationship
which appreciates individual and cultural differences.
• CBT focuses on conscious processes and specific behaviors (instead of unconscious processes and
abstract ideas): Hays notes that this may be especially important when therapy is conducted in
a client's second (or third, etc.) language or with an interpreter. Research indicates that fluency
in a 2nd language is negatively affected by emotional distress. A therapy that emphasizes
theoretical and abstract ideas may result in a greater potential for misunderstanding between
the therapist and a distressed client.
• CBT integrates assessment throughout the course of therapy: This cognitive-behavioral
assessment maps progress from the client's perspective. In fact, assessment measures could
easily be added to the battery that addresses concepts important to the client (e.g., the family's
views of the client's progress). Additionally, this emphasis on continuing assessment
demonstrates therapist commitment and respect for the client's opinion, which is important for
all clients, but perhaps more so for the client and therapist whose backgrounds differ.
CBT is rendered more effective when supported through Mindfulness and Motivational
Interviewing techniques. These strategies lend themselves well to electronically delivered treatment
and the telecare clients have responded well to these techniques. Promesa’s retention in telecare
treatment is nearly 80%.
Exhibit B Page7 Experience and/or knowledge of working with relevant statewide, municipal and community based
organizations that interface with target population.
1. Most of Promesa’s clientele are referred from municipal departments (Department of
Social Services, Department of Behavioral Health, Probation and/or Drug Courts), thus the
agency have deep experience in working closely with agencies which interface with the
target population.
2. Promesa has provided substance use services throughout Fresno County, often in
collaboration with local school districts.
3. Promesa’s TOADS program was aimed specifically at rural clients faced with obstacles to
treatment (transportation difficulties, lack of local services or inability to meet the cost of
treatment, lack of childcare). When treatment is electronically available through telecare,
rural clients respond favorably and generally tend to ‘stick it out’ to meet treatment goals.
Promesa’s telecare program experienced self-referrals for treatment, largely due to
convenience along with quality of care.
Promesa’s ability to work in cooperation with other agencies to provide linkages to supportive and
ancillary services (AA/NA)
a) The power of 12 Step Programs lies in the self-help philosophy which enables clients to
exercise some of the skills they will learn – such as reaching out for social support when the
temptation to drink/use comes up. Studies have shown that people who attend 12 step
groups and work the program by getting involved, finding a sponsor, working the steps and
giving back (making speeches, commitments to help out at meetings, sponsoring others or
in other ways) tend to do well in recovery in the long term.
b) How these will be brought to rural areas -- That said, 12 step programs are not available in
every rural community. Promesa will work with clients and the AA Central Office in Fresno
for their assistance to organize groups in the targeted rural communities of
Firebaugh/Mendota and Coalinga/Huron.
c) Promesa offers outpatient substance use programs that serve clients across the age
spectrum (12-17 years, adults (18+). Promesa’s services are available at school based sites
(for juveniles) and Promesa’s clinical sites in Fresno and Mendota (for adults).
d) Promesa’s outpatient services adhere to Medi-Cal standards. Generally, a referral is made
by a counselor, teacher, parent, probation officer, social worker, self-referral or a friend.
The referral is given to the substance use counselor who makes an appointment for a
complete assessment. The counselor assesses the client by taking a complete history to
determine if client qualifies according to the criteria found in the DSM-V and the levels
noted in the ASAM diagnostic tools. Typically, a client who has been using drugs or alcohol
in the last 12 months which severely impacts their life, such as their health, school work,
work, relationships, and truancy screen positively for admission.
e) Other services provided are crisis management for substance use and collateral counseling.
Counselors do crisis counseling when a client is in danger of relapse. Counselors also do a
family, close relative or friend session in relation to the client’s sobriety or safety.
Counselors coordinate with probation officers, Child Protective Services, Department of
Behavioral Health, Superior Court officials and other agencies in order to coordinate
services.

Intake and assessment process for clients referred
Diagnostic assessments for adults are conducted in a manner that identifies the historical and
current information of the potential client as well as his or her needs, abilities, and strengths.
Information is gathered in a face-to-face interview, written documentation, and contact with
referring agencies and family.
Clients must meet medical necessity, as determined by a physician, AND must have at least one
diagnosis from the DSM III/IV for substance related and addictive disorders as well as a positive
placement in an ASAM level.
Clients must be 18 years of age (or over) to qualify for adult rural outpatient services.
Clients must have a history of substance use. The substances involved are identified as part of
the intake/assessment/diagnostic interview, along with the social, psychological, and physical
and/or behavioral problems related to alcohol and other drug use as determined by ASAM level,
and medically determined.
Admission to treatment is not denied on the basis of ethnic group identification, religion, age,
sex, color, or disability. Promesa does not restrict admission to those persons who can be
expected, physically and mentally, to benefit from the services and settings available.
Clients will not be admitted who have major physical or emotional disabilities or illness which
represent an immediate danger to staff, self, or others; or who require an immediate medical
evaluation or medical/nursing care.
Clients must have some motivation to address their drug/alcohol issues; clients will also be
assessed for their willingness to receive counseling through telecare services. Clients will be
advised of the role and support resources being offered in telecare treatment and permission to
connect them with the Peer Support Specialist will occur during intake.
The staff will review the personal technology available to the client (personal smartphone,
laptop computer with webcam, or ability to get to a local distal site to access technology). This
technology review is essential to enroll a client in telecare based services.
At the time of the intake interview, the Counselor will determine whether the client qualifies for
services, should be referred to a medical facility, in-patient facility or other facility for
detoxification, based upon clinical assessment of client.
When a prospective client is incarcerated or hospitalized, the counselor will make arrangements
for a face-to-face interview at the client’s location, as appropriate and permitted by the
institution.
When a client does not meet the medical necessity determination, staff provides referral to a
lower level of care.
As noted above, clients recommended for treatment must meet the definition of medical necessity for
services based on the ASAM Criteria
A. In order for Promesa to admit to treatment, the client must meet the definition of medical
necessity, based on ASAM criteria.
o Promesa regularly reviews each case, with the contracted psychiatrist, to ensure that clients
meet the definition of medical necessity for services, based on ASAM criteria; in each case
review, staff measures each client’s progress against the criteria for a Level 1 or Level 2
outpatient program recommended by the American Society for Addiction Medicine. The
Exhibit B Page12 program expects those clients who engaged in treatment meet the ASAM criteria for admission
to treatment.
Firm organizational structure
1. Promesa Behavioral Health is structured in accordance with the regulations governing
nonprofits. The agency is steered by a Board of Directors, who provide governance and
administrative oversight to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
2. The CEO manages the organization with the assistance of 4 Division Managers, along with a
Human Resources Director, a Controller and IT Technical Resource Specialist.
3. The 4 Agency Divisions are: Substance Use/Mental Health, Residential Services, Foster Family
Agency and Adoptions. The Division Managers provide daily oversight to technicians, social
workers, interns, counselors, and professional staff.
4. The agency’s administrative and management teams are highly qualified with specific
experience, licensing or certifications in the programs they guide. These programs encompass
a variety of services -- 24 hour groups homes, foster families in multiple California counties
whose referrals represent many different language and ethnic groups, outpatient mental
health, and outpatient alcohol and drug use, adoption home studies conducted in several
California counties.
5. Each Division and client component brings unique legal, reporting, billing, accounting, and
human resource requirements. The broad range and evolving composition of the programs
requires a management team that is responsive to the needs of the clientele, referring
partners and to the Counties who contract for Promesa’s services. To meet this need, the
Human Resources Department seeks candidates who are well prepared in terms of education,
licensing and experience.
B. To assist in ensuring the highest quality of services, Promesa secures the services of consultants,
experts in their fields, to guide staff. Substance use/mental health services are assisted through
the services of Diane Kesckes, M.D., Substance Use Division Chief Medical Director, with addiction
and culturally relevant specialty consulting provided by psychiatrist Herbert A. Cruz, M.D.
C. With a budget of $8.5 million annually the agency has fully staffed finance, human resources and
maintenance departments. The directors of finance and human resources have an average of 20
years of experience in their respective fields.
D. Continuous quality assurance is carried out by each Division Manager and designated staff.
Organizational plan and management structure
Telecare is an innovative approach to reach communities that are unserved and disenfranchised.
Promesa’s TOADS program brings treatment and care even closer through the means of smart devices
and/or remote, secure technology. In order to be admitted into the telecare portion of treatment,
clients must be willing to use technology to receive counseling.
During the intake interview, clients are evaluated on their personal technology resources. Since
smart devices are essential to receive counseling through telecare, clients must have such a device that
can send and receive text messages, be video enabled and have internet access. Staff prefers clients to
use their own technology for counseling sessions, as it enables treatment to occur without travel or
other worries about accessibility and reduces costs to the agency and its funder. Those who do not have
personal smart devices with sufficient data plans are scheduled to receive treatment through a secure
Exhibit B Page13 web-based terminal set up in a health care clinic, pharmacy or private office in a centrally located
community setting. During the admissions interview, clients are advised they will be contacted by the
Peer Support Specialist, informed of his role in supporting their recovery and to expect electronic
contact from this paraprofessional member of the treatment team. Permission for this member of the
treatment team to contact them will be obtained during the admissions interview.
For clients are provided confidentiality training during their assessment, intake and treatment
planning appointment (which is done in person). Confidentiality training emphasizes that clients need
to find a secure space within their home while their session is occurring. Clients are advised that a
session will NOT occur if they are in a public, non-secure setting (ex: restaurant, coffeehouse, waiting
room, library). Clients are provided with a personal access code that connects them to their counselor
using encryption software which ensures their privacy during treatment sessions, texting
correspondence and other electronic communications.
• Clinicians and addiction counselors schedule sessions with rural adult clients using video
Smartphone and laptop technology that can securely access clients, to ensure they are receiving
in-the-moment information or scheduled consultation/ treatment session;
• Existing EHR platform built to scale for expanding electronic record keeping (Promesa uses
FAMCare, Promesa’s federally certified EHR);
• Security around the EHR Promesa utilizes continues to match and/or exceed HIPAA regulations;
• Emergency tracking services are employed within the TOADS program. Electronic devices owned
by Promesa which are used in treatment (like Smartphones and laptops (laptops enabled video
or IM (instant messaging) have GPS built in to enable 911 responses to track emergency event
locations (for example, a psychiatric crisis, evidence of immediate violence, an expressed threat
of homicide or suicide or possible overdosing). Further, GPS enables staff to track devices
owned by the agency, in the event of theft.
• Client’s personal technology may or may not have GPS enabled tracking. Promesa does not
request GPS information embedded in client devices.
• Additionally, Promesa seeks to expand Telecare services to un-served and/or under-served
populations in rural communities. Promesa expects to demonstrate the cost effectiveness of
telecare for rural substance use treatment as the most efficient model of care for rural residents
who are hampered in seeking treatment by geography, accessibility/ availability or other limiting
variable. One measure of cost effectiveness is to provide telecare through smart devices owned
by clients. In providing telecare with clients using their own technology, Promesa has never
experienced a confidentiality or security breach. When clients use their own technology for
treatment, it seems to strengthen their commitment to treatment. Clients respect the integrity
of the mobile therapy process and engage in the collaborative aspect of treatment.

Exhibit B Page14 CQI process
Clinical records are continually monitored by program staff, managers and consultants to assure
that record keeping and services comply with applicable laws and regulations, standards of quality
care, HIPAA requirements, meaningful use and the policies of Promesa Behavioral Health.
The Program Director is responsible for assuring that reviews take place. The file and the treatment
plan reviews occur under the direction of the Program Director who involves the Medical Director,
as appropriate.
CQM review is to assure:
Continuity of Activities
A recovery treatment plan is developed within 30 days of the client’s admission.
• Services required are provided and documented in the client’s file.
• Failure of the client to keep scheduled appointments is discussed by the treatment team and
action documented in the client’s file. Every reasonable effort is made to sustain non-compliant
clients in treatment.
• Progress in achieving the objectives identified in the treatment plan is assessed and
documented, along with periodic review and updates to the treatment plan.
• The treatment plan is reviewed by the client and updated as needed, at least every 90 days, in
accordance with MediCal procedures for justification to continue treatment services.
• The client’s file contains all required documents according to all regulatory guidelines, including
clinical notes.
• The client’s interactions with the Peer Support Specialist are fully documented and included in
the CQI review.
• If feasible, the client is followed-up after completion of program services as scheduled in the
discharge summary.
File Review – at minimum shall occur at intake, when treatment plan revision is appropriate and at
discharge. This review will assure that:
• The treatment plan/plan updates was relevant to the stated problem(s);
• The services delivered were relevant to the treatment plan; and
• Record keeping was in accordance with these standards
Treatment Plan Review – shall occur when a change in problem or in the focus if treatment occurs (as
per ASAM levels of care reviews), or updates/changes to the treatment plan, or no later than 90 days
after signing the initial treatment plan and no later than every 90 days thereafter as per MediCal
regulations.
• Assess progress to date;
• Reassess needs and services; and
• Identify additional problem areas and formulate new goals, when appropriate.
Eligibility Review
Frequent review of client’s third party payment eligibility, particularly for clients who are non-Drug
MediCal eligible at intake. Assess that clients who became Drug MediCal eligible were guided through
that qualification’s process.
Exhibit B Page15 Focus on Results
The TOADS program aims to provide substance use/addiction counseling services in areas without direct
SUD services, such as rural communities from which travel represents a significant commitment in time
and an impediment to traditional, site-based services.
1) TOADS will provide innovative and secure videoconferencing for SUD treatment, enabling
rural residents to meet sobriety goals, complete Drug Court recommendations and otherwise
live healthier lifestyles.
2) Since Promesa currently uses telecare in substance use counseling, the agency is ready to
implement the project upon award. Promesa has established workflow patterns in place for
telecare staff, who schedule clients upon referral, guide them through the intake, assessment
and orientation to telecare, who are skilled at scheduling the teleconferences, routinely send
out appointment reminders to clients, answer questions promptly and serve as ambassadors
of the program to clinicians, practitioners and others in the health care field.
3) The existing telecare staff, under the supervision of Promesa’s consulting psychiatrist, Dr.
Cruz, would be able to oversee a caseload of 60+ clients. In Promesa’s substance use
treatment program, there are 4 addiction counselors who are providing location based
treatment, as well as telecare to support the treatment goals of clients. Counselors provide
treatment at the urban Fresno location and in rural Mendota.
4) The Peer Support Specialist will only meet clients electronically. All contacts and types of
messages will be documented.
Tracking and Reporting on Performance
1) From its inception Promesa has made performing to contract measures a priority. The
measurement of contract performance is included in several of the quality management
activities that Promesa conducts – with particular emphasis upon contract compliance
agreements detailed by each County.
2) Promesa provides data reports on contract measures to its providers, based upon the
frequency detailed by each County. The data captured in the reports is primarily from
internal data sources. Data on contract measures is also available to providers and
Promesa’s Division management on a daily basis through an internal on-line database –
FAMCare.
3) In addition to the continual review of data on performance measures, Promesa’s
Managers also conducts monthly Continuous Quality Improvement meetings with staff to
review and discuss contractual indicators. Continuous Quality Improvement meetings
are also used as a platform for staff to report on strategies utilized to increase any
identified substandard performance. Processes and techniques that are used by those
achieving performance are also discussed so that practice changes can occur.
4) Consistent with CARF standards, Division Managers are responsible for ensuring that
clear, accurate, and timely information regarding all aspects of the quality management
process are provided to its service recipients, Board, staff, and community stakeholders.
Promesa attends and participates in monthly meetings with California Community
Alliance.
5) At least annually, Promesa provides a report of findings of key quality assurance activities
in the Annual Report.

Flexibility in meeting unique client needs …
With Telecare, this cost of treatment represents a vast savings over residential and/or
traditional office-based outpatient care. Moreover, with telecare not only is money saved over time,
but also time invested in recovery. The value of telecare for rural clients is it relieves the anxiety
concerning transportation, especially if the client has no personal vehicle or no license to drive.
Clients are also relieved of the stress of locating a treatment facility within urban Fresno, if one is
unfamiliar with urban traffic.
Because Promesa can more easily serve clients using their own smart technology, staff conducts
a technology review with each client, to determine the feasibility of the personal device for counseling
sessions. In assessing the type of technology personally available to clients, Promesa staff conduct a
thorough technology review and training with each client. This results in individualized ‘connection’
plans for each client, thus the counselors are electronically meeting with each client using a wide span
of smart devices (laptops, iPhones, iPads, Blackberry, and so forth). Clients are schooled in issues of
confidentiality when using their smart device for counseling. They are advised to NOT be in a public
place when a session is scheduled, but rather a private place in their home or by conducting their
session at a distal location arranged for the program.
Clients with limited data plans, older equipment or reluctance to use their own devices receive
orientation for their scheduled sessions at a distal site (a clinic, community center or other spot that
Promesa has secured for telecare services).
Dr. Cruz, the consulting psychiatrist for the TOADS program, prefers to meet clients using video-
enabled smart technology. In concert with staff, he will review client treatment plans, particularly if
the addiction counseling staff requests a medication review for the client. At intake, clients receive
orientation and instruction using the chosen internet platform (most likely WebEx) for their sessions
with Dr. Cruz or the counseling staff.
Length of Treatment
The majority of treatment plans call for a minimum of 2 counseling sessions per month. Clients
are typically provided a status interview at the end of 90 days (3 months) in treatment (as required by
MediCal regulations). Clients will remain active in treatment as long as medical necessity exists. Clients
who have met treatment goals will be transitioned into aftercare for a period of time, if medical
necessity for “stepped down” frequency in treatment is determined. Discharge planning begins as
clients progress through the ASAM levels of care and it is determined by the medical director that they
can sustain recovery on their own.
The added value of TOADS is that clients can be scheduled for more frequent clinical sessions,
since telecare is more cost effective to the agency and to the clients. Clients are send text reminders for
sessions and provided electronic inspirational messages. Clients are provided with a wide variety of
additional online resources, primarily from Hazelden, to supplement their recovery. Client utilization of
these expanded resources will be noted in their case files. Further, counselors are more immediately
available to clients, should need arise.
Exhibit B Page17 To review, treatment planning follows the following protocols:
A. The goal of the treatment is abstinence. However, since most clients experience a myriad of social
problems including involvement in the criminal justice system, lack of employment, family, and
other mental health issues, the agency recognizes the value of harm reduction strategies and utilizes
them to achieve the ultimate goal of complete abstinence. Through networking and through other
services provided by other divisions within the agency, the alcohol and drug treatment program is
able to broaden its approach in addressing the range of these problems the client’s experience.
B. Promesa emphasizes services provided by caring, professional staff and makes every effort to hire
licensed or certified staff as well as contract with board certified medical personnel when that is
appropriate or required.
C. On-site SUD counseling services are provided at Promesa’s headquarters location from 8-5:30
Monday – Friday; Promesa offers evening sessions twice a week, from 6:00-8:00 pm. For rural
clients, assessment/intake services are on-site at a distal location (a community center or health
clinic) and through telecare for ongoing treatment.
D. Promesa has a 24/7 emergency contact for those clients who may need immediate crisis
management.
i. Bio-Psycho-social assessment (ASI), a mental health assessment and evaluation will occur in
person/on site upon intake and upon program completion.
ii. Individual counseling for crisis, prevention of immediate relapse, or if relapse has occurred,
recovery therapy, individual sessions primarily through telecare based sessions.
iii. Collaborative treatment planning occurs with client, counselor, and/or physician in an in-
person, local context. Assessment, intake and treatment planning occurs in a location
convenient to the client, on-site in a setting that can sustain confidentiality.
iv. Outpatient group therapy is offered in the telecare program, on-site for monthly group
sessions; the majority of treatment is individual telecare sessions.
v. Collateral sessions with close family or friends who may be impacted by the treatment may
be provided, through telecare, as well. Family members are also offered an orientation to
telecare, a technology review and a confidentiality training.
vi. Collaboration with other agencies to create a comprehensive treatment program including
entering into distal location agreements with local agencies or health clinics.
vii. Promesa’s programs continue this focus of providing local services. The agency has (or is
willing to) establish collocated services with local organizations.
viii. Promesa recognizes that the San Joaquin Valley encompasses a culturally, socially and
ethnically diverse population. The people who seek treatment here are doing their best to
create meaningful, satisfying lives for themselves, usually under very difficult circumstances.
Therefore, the services provided at Promesa enables clients to build successful and
responsible lives for themselves.
ix. Promesa introduces and encourages use of 12 step programs.
x. Referrals are made by the Department of Behavioral Health, Fresno County Probation
Department and Drug Court, Department of Social Services, Welfare to Work as well as
Superior Court of Fresno County, parents, schools and self.
xi. Additionally, Promesa uses a holistic community framework to ensure that programs and
services are using evidence based treatment services.
xii. As previously noted, the determination of treatment services emerges from a variety of
assessment instruments. Promesa administers the complete ASAM, as well as the Addiction
Exhibit B Page18 Severity Index, a drug use screening along with a general health questionnaire. These
assessment instruments frame the treatment recommendations of the staff.
xiii. The California Outcomes Measurement System (CALOMS) is a data collection and reporting
system for substance use disorders (SUD) treatment services utilized by staff. Staff enters
information monthly, which builds a comprehensive picture of client behavior with
alcohol/drug use, employment and education, legal/criminal justice, medical/physical
health, mental health and social/family life. Summary reports which emerge from this
treatment outcome data, contribute to understanding of treatment and the improvement of
SUD treatment in the continuum of prevention, treatment and recovery services.
xiv. Provide a safe and confidential environment for growth and health, with culturally specific
and family centered approaches, while building community support for at-risk populations.
E. The treatment strategies integrate culturally competent electronically based therapy with
traditional drug treatment/relapse prevention modalities, such as 12 step AA/NA models, relapse
prevention, cognitive behavioral and cultural interventions. The physical health problems associated
with drug use will be addressed through linking clients with needed medical services.
F. Staff also continually review client eligibility for drug MediCal services, if they are not eligible
upon intake.
G. One insight that Promesa feels contributes to treatment retention and extension rates is the
sensitivity of the staff — the Addiction Counselors, the Peer Support Specialist and/or interns
electronically contact each client every Monday to check-in (for many clients, weekends are fraught
with temptations to relapse, so the check-in is an important connection for the clients). Counselors also
conduct check-ins after holidays and any major life event revealed by clients (for example, anniversaries
for weddings, divorces, deaths -- often sources of difficulty for clients in recovery). This attentiveness
helps clients to maintain equilibrium and practice the harm reduction strategies they work so hard to
embrace.
H. Many of Promesa’s telecare clients often report that they are not ‘sober’ yet in the sense of
complete abstinence from their substance/s of choice; yet, they simultaneously note a decrease in
symptoms (drinking/using less, drinking/using less often, and/or using fewer illegal substances) while
reporting increased refusal abilities.
In assessing the type of technology personally available to clients, Promesa staff conducts a thorough
technology review and electronic device training with each client. Resulting in individualized
‘connection’ plans for each client, enabling the counselors efficiently electronically meet with each client
no matter the span of smart devices (laptops, android-enabled, iPhones, iPads, Blackberry, and so forth).
One tantalizing insight that has emerged from utilizing the personal devices of clients is that they seem
more committed to treatment, Promesa concludes that providing their own equipment likely contributes
to a stronger ‘buy-in’ to treatment, where clients strive to meet their sobriety goals.

The Case for the Enhanced National CLAS Standards
Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.
— Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Health equity is the attainment of the highest level of health for all people (U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services [HHS] Office of Minority Health, 2011). 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 (World Health Organization, 2012),
such as socioeconomic status, education level, and the availability of health services (HHS Office of Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion, 2010). 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 (LaVeist, Gaskin, & Richard, 2009).
Culturally and linguistically appropriate services are increasingly recognized as effective in improving the quality of care
and services (Beach et al., 2004; Goode, Dunne, & Bronheim, 2006). By providing a structure to implement culturally and
linguistically appropriate services, the enhanced National CLAS Standards will improve an organization’s ability to address
health care disparities.
The enhanced National CLAS Standards align with the HHS Action Plan to Reduce Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities
(HHS, 2011) and the National Stakeholder Strategy for Achieving Health Equity (HHS National Partnership for Action to
End Health Disparities, 2011), 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
enhanced 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.

• The program contains a component that clearly explains in written materials
that there shall be no unlawful use of drugs or alcohol. No aspect of a drug- or

NOTICE OF CHILD ABUSE REPORTING LAW
The undersigned hereby acknowledges that Penal Code section 11166 and the
contractual obligations between County of Fresno (COUNTY) and PROVIDER(S)
related to provision of alcohol and drug abuse treatment services for Fresno County
residents, require that the undersigned report all known or suspected child abuse or
neglect to one or more of the agencies set forth in Penal Code (P.C.) section (§) 11165.9.
For purposes of the undersigned’s child abuse reporting requirements, “child
abuse or neglect” includes physical injury inflicted by other than accidental means upon a
child by another person, sexual abuse as defined in P.C. §11165.1, neglect as defined in
P.C. §11165.2, willful cruelty or unjustifiable punishment as defined in P.C. §11165.3,
and unlawful corporal punishment or injury as defined in P.C. §11165.4.
A child abuse report shall be made whenever the undersigned, in his or her
professional capacity or within the scope of his or her employment, has knowledge of or
observes a child whom the undersigned knows or reasonably suspects has been the victim
of child abuse or neglect. (P.C §11166.) The child abuse report shall be made to any
police department or sheriff’s department (not including a school district police or
security department), or to any county welfare department, including Fresno County
Department of Children and Family Services’ 24 Hour CARELINE. (See PC §11165.9.)
For purposes of child abuse reporting, a “reasonable suspicion” means that it is
objectively reasonable for a person to entertain a suspicion, based upon facts that could
cause a reasonable person in a like position, drawing, when appropriate, on his or her
training and experience, to suspect child abuse or neglect. The pregnancy of a child does
not, in and of itself, constitute a basis for reasonable suspicion of sexual abuse. (P.C.
§11166(a)(1).)
Substantial penalties may be imposed for failure to comply with these child abuse
reporting requirements.
Further information and a copy of the law may be obtained from the department
head or designee.
I have read and understand the above statement and agree to comply with the
child abuse reporting requirements.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING DISCLOSURE OF
OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL INTEREST STATEMENT
A full and accurate disclosure of ownership and financial interest is required. Failure to submit requested information may result in a refusal by the Secretary or
appropriate State agency to enter into an agreement or contract with any such institution or in termination of existing agreements.
General Instructions
Please answer all questions as of the current date. If the yes block for
any item is checked, list requested additional information under the
Remarks section on page 2, referencing the item number to be
continued. If additional space is needed use an attached sheet.
Return the original and second and third copies to the State
agency; retain the first copy for your files.
This form is to be completed annually. Any substantial delay in
completing the form should be reported to the State survey agency.
DETAIL ED INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions are designed to clarify certain questions on the form.
Instructions are listed in question order for easy reference. No
instructions have been given for questions considered self-explanatory. IT
IS ESSENTIAL THAT ALL APPLICABLE QUESTIONS BE ANSWERED
ACCURATELY AND THAT ALL INFORMATION BE CURRENT.
Item I - Under identifying information specify in what capacity the entity is
doing business as (DBA), example, name of trade or corporation.
Item II - Self-explanatory.
Item III - List the names of all individuals and organizations having
direct or indirect ownership interests, or controlling interest separately or
in combination amounting to an ownership interest of 5 percent or more
in the disclosing entity.
Direct ownership interest is defined as the possession of stock, equity in
capital or any interest in the profits of the disclosing entity. A
disclosing entity is defined as a Medicare provider or supplier, or other
entity that furnishes services or arranges for furnishing services under
Medicaid or the Maternal and Child Health program, or health related
services under the social services program.
Indirect ownership interest is defined as ownership interest in an entity
that has direct or indirect ownership interest in the disclosing entity.
The amount of indirect ownership in the disclosing entity that is held by
any other entity is determined by multiplying the percentage of
ownership interest at each level. An indirect ownership interest must be
reported if it equates to an ownership interest of 5 percent or more in the
disclosing entity. Example: if A owns 10 percent of the stock in a
corporation that owns 80 percent of the stock of the disclosing entity,
A's interest equates to an 8 percent indirect ownership and must be
reported.
Controlling interest is defined as the operational direction or
management of a disclosing entity which may be maintained by any or
all of the following devices: the ability or authority, expressed or
reserved, to amend or change the corporate identity (i.e., joint venture
agreement, unincorporated business status) of the disclosing entity; the
ability or authority to nominate or name members of the Board of
Directors or Trustees of the disclosing entity; the ability or authority,
expressed or reserved, to amend or change the by-laws, constitution,
or other operating or management direction of the disclosing entity; the
right to control any or all of the assets or other property of the
disclosing entity upon the sale or dissolution of that entity; the ability or
authority, expressed or reserved, to control the sale of any or all of the
assets, to encumber such assets by way of mortgage or other
indebtedness, to dissolve the entity, or to arrange for the sale or
transfer of the disclosing entity to new ownership or control.
Items IV – VII - Changes in Provider Status
Change in provider status is defined as any change in management
control. Examples of such changes would include: a change in Medical
or Nursing Director, a new Administrator, contracting the operation of
the facility to a management corporation, a change in the composition
of the owning partnership which under applicable State law is not
considered a change in ownership, or the hiring or dismissing of any
employees with 5 percent or more financial interest in the facility or in
an owning corporation, or any change of ownership.
For Items IV – VII, if the yes box is checked, list additional information
requested under Remarks. Clearly identify which item is being continued.
Item IV - (a & b) If there has been a change in ownership within the
last year or if you anticipate a change, indicate the date in the
appropriate space.
Item V - If the answer is yes, list name of the management firm and
employer identification number (EIN), or the name of the leasing
organization. A management company is defined as any organization
that operates and manages a business on behalf of the owner of that
business, with the owner retaining ultimate legal responsibility for
operation of the facility.
Item VI - If the answer is yes, identify which has changed
(Administrator, Medical Director, or Director of Nursing) and the date
the change was made. Be sure to include name of the new
Administrator, Director of Nursing or Medical Director, as appropriate.
Item VII - A chain affiliate is any free-standing health care facility that is
either owned, controlled, or operated under lease or contract by an
organization consisting of two or more free-standing health care facilities
organized within or across State lines which is under the ownership or
through any other device, control and direction of a common party.
Chain affiliates include such facilities whether public, private, charitable
or proprietary. They also include subsidiary organizations and holding
corporations. Provider-based facilities, such as hospital-based home
health agencies, are not considered to be chain affiliates
