Executive Summary:
I.D.E.A consulting services provides expert guidance around policy and regulation development for County Behavioral Health. We have utilized them to support the extensive policy work needed to join the Organized Delivery System, as well as a revamp of many of our mental health policies. Due to the ever-changing nature of behavioral health rules and regulations, as well as staffing capacity challenge, we have utilized I.D.E.A. to support these core functions.
