Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve Amendment No. 4 to IGA# ADHS14-071556, Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) Services, between the Arizona Department of Health Services and Cochise Health and Social Services in the amount of $15,405, effective 1/1/18 – 12/31/18.

Background:

Cochise County 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.  The funding structure changed in January 2014, and now CHSS is funded to educate providers in our county regarding STD treatment and services available, and to track and report STDs within the county.  General Funded nursing staff continues to provide testing and treatment services based on a sliding fee schedule. 
 

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Your approval is respectfully requested.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

Not approving the amendment would increase the financial impact on the General Fund by causing the inability of CHSS to collect from ADHS for the costs associated with STD tracking/reporting services and educating county providers, and could cause cessation of this important public health service to the community.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

Return three (3) signed copies to CHSS.
