IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS - SUPPORT COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH BID OUT PLAN FOR
MICHIGAN AUTHORIZED BY SENATORS SHIRLEY JOHNSON AND BEVERLY HAMMERSTROM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Senators Shirley Johnson and Beverly Hammerstrom have drafted a
Bid Out Plan for Community Mental Health Services based on primary positions
taken by the Michigan Community Mental Health Board Association, the Michigan
Association of Counties Human Services Committee; and
WHEREAS the Plan incorporates many of the ideas from the Michigan
Department of Community Health's originally proposed bid out plan, such as:
1) input from providers, 2) input from consumers and advocates, 3) promotes
competition for mental health services at the local level, 4) encourages
partnerships between programs that enhance service delivery, and 5) requires
reinvestment of all savings back into mental health care programs; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Community Mental Health Authority supports this
Plan as the best effort to date in converting the State CMH Service Providers to
effective Managed Care and Provider Organizations.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners does hereby support the Community Mental Health Bid Out Plan for
Michigan as authored by Senators Shirley Johnson and Beverly Hammerstrom.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be forwarded to
Governor Engler, all Oakland County's legislative delegates and lobbyists, and
