RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Grant Award Amendment #29-393-29 with the California Department of Public Health, Tuberculosis (TB) Control Branch, to amend Grant Award #29-393-28, to increase the amount payable to County by $3,061 from $285,092 to a new total of $288,153, with no change in the original term of July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in an increase of $3,061 for the County’s TB Control Program from the State of California, TB Control Branch for fiscal year 2018-2019. (No County match required)


BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa County, Public Health Department maintains a TB Control Program, which serves all reported TB patients and their contacts in Contra Costa County. Outreach services are provided to reach the “Hard-to Reach” people with TB and those at high risk. The TB control staff work within the Communicable Disease Section in collaboration with the HIV/AIDS Program, Substance Abuse Programs, Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Health Centers, and providers throughout the County.  
  
On July 24, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved acceptance of Grant Award #29-393-28 with the California Department of Public Health, TB Control Branch, for the County’s TB Control Program, for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.  
  
Approval of Grant Award Amendment #29-393-29 will allow the Department to receive additional funds to continue to expand its prevention and control activities, through June 30, 2019.  

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County will not receive additional funds for services which would result in a decrease in the number of TB patients who receive appropriate treatment and therefore increasing the spread of TB.
