health delivery system is one of the most pressing matters, the Board of
Commissioners created a Task Force to explore this issue, and

complexity that professional expertise will be necessary to fully understand
and restructure our system to encompass this new approach to mental health
care.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners does hereby establish a Request for Proposal for a Managed Care
Consultant Task Force to be comprised of the Chairperson of the Board of
Commissioners, the Chair of the Public Services Committee, and the Chair of
the Finance/Personnel Committee and two other members to be appointed by the
Chairperson of the Board of Commissioners, for the purpose of developing a
proposal seeking the services of a consultant to assist in the design of a
managed care system for Oakland County Community Mental Health Services.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Managed Care Consultant Task Force be
authorized to coordinate with the Purchasing Division for the issuance of a
formal Request for Proposal (RFP) to firms or individuals qualified to provide
