RE: Agreement between the Weld County Department of
Human Services and Signal Behavioral Health Network
Enclosed for Board approval is an Agreement between the Department and Signal Behavioral
Health Network. This Agreement was reviewed at the Board's May 30, 2012, Work Session.
The Department agrees to contract with Signal for a maximum of$300,000.00 from their Core
Service Funding. Signal, as the managed care entity, would contract with North Range Behavioral
Health to provide the substance abuse monitoring and treatment services. Signal agrees to
contribute a maximum of$115,126.04 annually from designated Alcohol, Drug Abuse Division
(ADAD) Additional Family Service (AFS) funds to serve eligible clients as described in the
Attachment. Signal's administration fee shall be calculated as five percent of the service fees,
salaries, and other authorized costs that are actually incurred in the delivery of treatment services.
Other requested services or reports may be considered outside the scope of this agreement and,
therefore, subject to an additional fee.
Funding this year is at the same level as last year; however, minor changes were made to this
year's Contract as follows:
1. All monitoring beyond standard urinalysis or breathalyzer tests must be approved by the
County prior to administration.
2. Added Exhibit S to allow us to utilize SCRAMx (Secure, Continuous, Remote, Alcohol
Monitoring) as another testing procedure that may benefit some of our clients.
Due to different State funding cycles, the period of performance under this Agreement will
overlap. For the County Core Services the period of performance shall be June 1, 2012
through May 31, 2013. The Signal Additional Family Service(AFS) period of performance
shall be July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013.
If you have any questions, give me a call at extension 6510.

Resulting in the total rate of$13.65 per day.
Signal and MSI have qualified SCRAMx (Secure, Continuous, Remote, Alcohol Monitoring) from Alcohol
Monitoring Systems(AMS) as an affirmative technology option. From the successful trial that Signal and
MSI implemented in 2011, use case illuminates clinical and financial benefits to be shared with other

monitoring.

the equipment as needed, and training all involved in the project in the operations of the
equipment and hardware. For purposes of this amendment, MSI and Signal will be available to
place equipment on an identified client within 24-hours of the initial request.
-MSI will manage the inventory of hardware allocated to this program.
-MSI will invoice Signal on the first day of each month for the prior month utilization charges.
-MSI will provide the identified treatment team a list of SCRAMx clients, along with compliance
reports on all clients. Compliance reports will be customized to meet the treatment teams
reporting requirements.

and/or designated Case Worker immediately.
-MSI will notify the NRBH and Case Worker of all confirmed events.

-Signal Behavioral Health Network will provide subject matter expertise in the areas of
substance use disorder treatment, compliance and quality improvement.
-Signal Behavioral Health Network will coordinate efforts to inform the partners of the
the evolution, project development and outcomes of the SCRAMx program. Signal will
foster a robust follow up of information to and from all stake holders.
V. Client enrollment and process.
SCRAMx is a technology to be used with alcohol involved clients and will not monitor the use of illicit
drug abuse. When an alcohol involved client is identified and deemed appropriate for the SCRAMx
technology, the Case Worker should contact Jason Botticelli, or other MSI representative at
818.264.6152 to begin the enrollment process.
Enrollment Process
• The phone-based, risk assessment screening, using ADRS, will be completed to confirm
the client is a match for the SCRAMx project;
• MSI will arrange a meeting with the client and Case Worker/Clinical Team, and orient
the client to the SCRAMx bracelet and SCRAMx will be placed on the client's ankle;
• MSI will coordinate with the team to determine the desired process of results reporting;
• SCRAMx will be made active and monitoring will commence.
As the client evolves through SCRAMx project, representatives from MSI and Signal will be available to
the clinical team to assess the client's clinical progress using a combination of Motivational Interviewing
interventions along with SCRAMx. A key focus will be working with the client to internalize behavior
changes to improve long-term abstinence from alcohol. Additionally, project representatives will be
assessing the client's satisfaction using SCRAMx and elicit feedback to further inform the client portion
of the project.
Secondly, representatives from MSI and Signal will ask the clinical team to report their experience with
the SCRAMx intervention. This information will be used to manage project processes moving forward.
Also important to the project is the opportunity to work with Department Administration to determine
cost-savings and/or cost-offset when applying SCRAMx to this clinical population.
