Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve IGA number ADHS 12-020641 between the Arizona Department of Health Services and Cochise Health and Social Services in the amount of $45,000 for the term 4/16/12 through 4/30/13.

Background:

The Az Department of Health Services is offering these IGAs to all counties interested in pursuing accreditation by the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO).   The importance of achieving this accreditation status is being strongly communicated by AzDHS and that agency is willing to help offset the expenses associated with preparation for the accreditation process.   The focus of this IGA will be on the completion and analysis of a Community Health Assessment for our County.   If approved to accept this IGA, CHSS would hire a consultant to assist with contract deliverables so there would be no additional employee expenses and no County match required.   The way the IGA is structured, we receive payment after each deliverable is accomplished and we can opt out at any time.   Acceptance of this IGA is not a commitment that we will pursue full accreditation in the future.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Work with Procurement to determine best candidate/agency to hire as consultant.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

No funding to assist with preparation for accreditation.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

Sign 2 hard copies of IGA and return to Mary Gomez.
