BH cuts cascade directly into FQHC partnerships handling Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health and DMC-ODS contracts. FQHCs in scope: Gardner Health Services, School Health Clinics of Santa Clara, Indian Health Center of Santa Clara Valley. Strategic implication: Bay Area FQHCs running BH integration models with county Specialty MH referral chains face revenue exposure as the county redraws contracts to absorb the deficit. Watch for the May Board hearing for specific service eliminations — and whether SCCBHSD shifts more 'mild-to-moderate' BH responsibility onto FQHCs without commensurate Medi-Cal payment.

The Valley Health Center network — which operates 9 FQHC sites serving 120,000+ patients — faces potential clinic closures and reduced hours. Indian Health Center of Santa Clara Valley and School Health Clinics of Santa Clara County may also lose county supplemental funding. FQHCs in the region should prepare contingency plans for patient redistribution.
