Integrated Care

The County of Sedgwick and the City of Wichita are seeking qualified organizations to deliver integrated‑care services aimed at reducing opioid use disorder (OUD) impacts across the jurisdiction. The award will fund up to three separate contracts (each up to $200,000) to expand access, strengthen the behavioral‑health workforce, and build cross‑sector partnerships. Projects must be evidence‑based, include performance metrics, and adhere to strict reporting, insurance, and indemnification requirements. The contract runs through December 31 2027 with a possible one‑year no‑cost extension. • Scope covers enhanced access to treatment and recovery housing, workforce recruitment/retention incentives, and formalized data‑sharing partnerships. • Applicants must submit a detailed narrative, budget workbook, certifications, and required attachments; proposals are evaluated on methodology, qualifications, evidence base, performance measures, accessibility, and cost reasonableness. • Funding is the payer‑of‑last‑resort from the Kansas opioid‑settlement fund; no supplanting of existing Medicaid/Medicare/private‑insurance billing is allowed.
