Mutually beneficial procurement provisions
Successful procurement
New Step in Planning Process
Follow-up contact between LMHA and provider required
Initiated by LMHA using DSHS website LMHA specifies teleconference or visit LMHA provides scheduling flexibility Provider has 45 days to participate
New Provision The LMHA may conclude that a provider
is not interested in contracting with the LMHA if the provider does not participate in a teleconference or in-person meeting (whichever is requested by LMHA) within 45 days
LMHA must assume provider is interested if LMHA does not initiate contact
Content of Meeting

Purpose
LMHAs and providers have complete information for decision-making
Providers can focus on areas with greatest potential for success
LMHAs avoid unsuccessful procurement
Significance An LMHA is not obligated to go through
procurement if no providers have demonstrated interested in contracting with the LMHA
DSHS may contact providers to confirm LMHA conclusions regarding provider interest
