Summary of Request:

Data Strategy Consulting will continue to develop and implement the public health surveillance plan collaboratively with MCPH. They will monitor the public health surveillance plan to ensure implementation meets the evolving needs, standards, and expectations of MCPH and work with MCPH on other requests as needed.
The proposed amendment will fund continued Data Strategy Consulting’s epidemiological work uninterrupted through June 30, 2025.
