You will use this Agenda Item template if your item involves a Grant (whether a new or renewal grant). You also must attach the Grant Approval Form to the item before Finance will approve it.

Agenda Item Text:
Approve Amendment 6, to IGA# HG854323, STD Services, between the Arizona Department of Health Services and the Cochise County Health Department, in the amount of $2,271, for the period of 1/1/11 to 12/31/11.
Background:
The Health Department has received funds from the ADHS for many years to provide screening, laboratory testing, treatment, and follow-up for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) primarily Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and Syphilis. Through this contract the CCHD is funded to ensure availability of STD care, treatment and services to our community.
These grant funds primarily pay for the laboratory testing and treatment regimens for STDs. General Funded nursing staff provides these services free of charge. The Nursing Division will continue to use ingenuity and other (limited) sources of funding to avoid impact on its General Fund budget in order to continue providing these services. The Health Director will inform the Board in advance of the time when this is no longer possible.
This amendment extends the termination date by one year.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Your approval is respectfully requested.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Not approving this amendment may cause the inability of the Health Department to collect the reimbursement for STD testing services from the ADHS and would cause cessation of this service to the community.
