O.-32 25-1985 Approval by the Board of Education of a Services Agreement 2025-2026 by and between the District and Medical Billing Technologies, Inc., Visalia, CA, for the latter to track and capture Medi-Cal services provided, assist the District with properly documenting services, and submit the information for reimbursement in a manner compliant with complex state and federal requirements, via Community Schools and Student Services Department, for the period of July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026, in an amount not to exceed $200,000.00.
Recouping funds through MediCal Billing is important to the district's fiscal health.

What is the explanation? What has been done to assure that recoupment of MediCal funds is done in the most efficient way, both in terms of maximizing the amount received and doing the work in the most efficient way?
