Cost Report
Below are electronic copies of the notices and FY 15/16 Cost Report forms from the State; a link to OMB 122 Principles for Non Profits, and a link to the DHCS Website. Executive Directors and Fiscal Staff should review these documents carefully, as policies and procedures currently in effect may need to be revised or strengthened in relation to direct and indirect costs.
The State may start to give more guidance and or information on this and Behavioral Health Care Services’ Network Office will pass the information along as we get it. However, it’s your agency’s responsibility to properly allocate and assign costs. We hope this helps you get started becoming more informed about the upcoming changes. If you have questions or input please contact your assigned Fiscal Contract Manager (FCM). The FCM will answer your questions to the extent possible, and/or pass them along to management for future/further consideration or action.

Updating Contractor Contact Information
The Network Office is pleased to announce that for FY 13-14, provider contact information will be collected electronically. We have established a secure online form that takes only a few minutes to complete. The content of this form is almost identical to the Contact Update Sheet previously used for FY 12-13; the additional item we are requesting is the required information about your organization’s Board of Directors. We ask that one person from each organization complete this form by visiting https://networkoffice.wufoo.com/forms/alameda-county-bhcs-annual-contact-update. A confirmation and a copy of the completed information will be sent your organization’s Executive Director’s email. If your organization’s Executive Director does not receive the confirmation email, please make sure to remove no-reply@wufoo.com from your junk/spam inbox. Moving forward, we hope to use more tools like this to improve the way we do business.
