i
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approved and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to
execute on behalf of the County, Master Grant Agreement #29-388-39 (401-15070) ,
with the State Department of. Health Services Office of AIDS, in an amount not
to exceed $1,463,488, to fund the County's AIDS Programs during Fiscal Year
2001-2002, to provide testing services, surveillance, case management,
prevention education, outreach, social marketing, and services to women, for
the period from July 1, 2001 through June 30, 2004.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this agreement willresult in an amount not to exceed $1,463,488,
for the County's AIDS Program during Fiscal Year 2001-2002 for the first year
of this three year agreement. No County funds are required.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S) :
I
The Master Agreement incorporates a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for each
service component of the AIDS program which defines the services to be provided
and the budget. The MOUS are negotiated by staff of the State Office of AIDS
and the County's AIDS Program representatives. The State requires only that
the MOUS be signed by the State Office of AIDS Chief and the County's Health
Officer, or his designee. ' This streamlines and expedites the contracting
procedure for the AIDS Program, as only the Master Grant Agreement and any
formal amendments to the Master Grant Agreement require County Board of Super-
visors and State Department of Finance approval.
The goal of the program, in operation since 1987, is to maintain client self-
sufficiency and to minimize costly hospitalization through the provision of
comprehensive case management services by a multi-disciplinary team consisting
of public health nurses and medical social workers and contracted support such
as home health care, nutritional counseling and home delivered meals.
Approval of this Master Grant Agreement #29-388-39 will allow funding to the
County's AIDS Program for Fiscal Year 2001-2002.
i
Four. sealed/certified copies of this Board Order should be returned to the
Contracts and Grants Unit ' for submission to the State Department of Health
Services.
