SERVICE DESCRIPTION, FUNDING AND CONTRACTING INFORMATION PURPOSE AND OVERVIEW The Multnomah County Health Department (MCHD) is seeking Proposer(s) from whom it may purchase secured medical transportation services for adult mental health clients and correctional health inmates of Multnomah County. INTRODUCTION AND PROGRAM HISTORY Description https://www.multco.us/purchasing/webform/mmp-supplier-access-request-form https://meet.google.com/fno-drpk-jhf Multnomah County has a current requirement for secured medical transportation services. This requirement is set by the State – any unique requirements are identified below. Secure transport is used to move clients from one facility to another, ensuring both the safety of the client and transporting staff. Multnomah County often requires agencies who are capable of providing transportation with restraints and therefore will only enter into contracts with agencies that have that ability. These services are authorized by the County and designed for individuals enrolled in Oregon Health Plan (OHP), for those without insurance or resources, and for anyone who is in crisis. There is a critical need for providers who will accept Medicare payments. GOALS, VALUES AND OTHER IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS It is the mission of the Multnomah County Health Department to build and maintain high quality, accessible and culturally competent systems of care for adults with emotional or addictive disorders, or mental illnesses. TARGET POPULATION SERVED Resulting contract(s) will provide transportation services to adult residents and those who are being released from the criminal justice system that are suffering from mental illness within the total geographic area. GEOGRAPHIC BORDERS/LIMITATIONS & SERVICE AREAS Transportation services will be provided as needed in the Multnomah County total geographic area. Transportation potentially may require that these services be provided outside of the State of Oregon. FUNDING Funding of the work described in this RFP is not guaranteed. Fluctuations in funding year to year should be expected. The County cannot assure that any particular level of work will be assigned and the contract will permit the County to add or remove work as necessary depending on availability of funding.
