Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (William

effective October 1, 1992, to amend Standard Agreement #29-395-8 (effective

Services, Office of AIDS, to allocate additional funds for the County's AIDS Drug
Program and to extend the term of the agreement through October 31, 1993.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:

the State for County's AIDS Drug Program, from $84,000, to a new total allocation
of $162,000, for the period from October 1, 1992 through October 31, 1993.
The allocation will be used to cover the cost of certain drugs for eligible low

cover administrative costs associated with this program or for patient monitoring,
laboratory testing, or other medical services for persons receiving any of the

Administration to prolong the life of a person with AIDS, for eligible low income
persons who are infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and/or
persons with AIDS and related complexes who meet certain criteria.
Approval of this amendment provides additional funding for County's AIDS Drug
Program, based upon actual and projected drug expenditures by the Department, and
extends the term of the agreement through October 31, 1993.
