F8: Del Norte County Mental Health has a history of providing a high level of patient care. The Department staff consisted of two psychiatric professionals and several Master’s level therapists, plus clinical and support staff. The staff met twice weekly to discuss patient care and prospective treatment options. The entire operation occurred in one facility which allowed for continual contact between clients, staff, physicians, and supervisors. Clients had a high level of continuity in their care, provided by an interactive staff.

F9: While care level was high, financial tracking of case management was and is very complicated. Payments for Medi-Cal and daily operations are charged to numerous accounting sources. Physicians’ treatment time is charged as “billable hours” to Medi- Cal and Medicare. While high quality patient care was being performed, the complicated accounting of operation costs for providing that level of care was inadequate. Consequently, during a periodic audit conducted by Medi-Cal, it was determined that DNCMH had been over-paid for services provided. The DNCMH was required to return this large overpayment.
