Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve Amendment 6 to IGA # HG854563, County Tuberculosis Control Program, between the Arizona Department of Health Services and Cochise Health & Social Services, in the amount of $18,500 for the period of 7/1/2011 to 06/30/2012.

Background:

The Health Department has the responsibility to investigate and treat suspected and active cases of Tuberculosis in Cochise County. The ADHS supports the County's efforts by means of grant funding to pay for consulting physician services, necessary testing, and medication. Salaries may also be paid from these grant funds, and the Health Dept. is paying 10% of the TB Coordinator’s salary ($3,121 + EREs).

The ADHS has funded this program for many years and the amounts of the grants have ebbed and flowed with the fortunes of the State's revenues. The Health Dept. has amended the Price Sheet due to the increased costs of lab fees and travel/fuel costs. This Amendment is for a revised Price Sheet. The amount of the grant increases from $12,000 to 18,500.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Your approvals are respectfully requested.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

Not approving this grant will cause the Health Dept. to rely on County General Funds to meet the mandatory requirements of TB case investigation and treatment in Cochise County.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

A fully executed original will be sent to the Clerk of the Board for filing purposes.
