Background/Explanation:
In December of 2019, following a competitive process through the Purchasing & Risk Division, the County entered into an agreement with KPMG for an actionable strategic plan that would enhance and elevate the Pinellas County Adult Behavioral Health System.

1. Establish a systemic performance management approach collectively with all funders and contractual ODS requirements for all providers (Phase 2).
2. Establish a robust CAM with a 1-800 number, standardized screening, triage, scheduling practices, and evaluation of current provider systems (Phase 3).
