Department Action
 Heath Care is requesting Commissioner Court acceptance of the FY2021-2023 contract for DSHS RLSS/LPHS funds for the two-year grant period 9/1/2021-8/31/2023 in the amount of $43,278. The application for this grant was approved on April 5, 2021, Agenda Item 50022.  The purpose of the RLSS/LPHS funds is to support efforts by local health departments in addressing public health issues, including those related to Tuberculosis.
 
Collin County Health Care Services (CCHCS) plans to use the DSHS funds towards the salary and fringe benefits for the Tuberculosis (TB) Program Manager.  The objective to be achieved in using the RLSS/LPHS funds is that the TB Program will be able to provide directly observed therapy (DOT) and Video Observed Therapy (VOT) to patients at their home, work, and at our clinic setting.  By providing DOT and VOT services, CCHCS is striving to reduce the spread of TB, which is a communicable disease spread through the air.
