Summary of Request:
Through prevention, surveillance, and outbreak control, Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA), Public Health Immunization Services provides a mechanism to reduce, prevent, and if possible, eliminate illness, disability, and death due to vaccine-preventable diseases. Public Health staff provide information and education to healthcare providers, school staff, childcare providers, and the public through materials, presentations, public service announcements, and outreach. The program identifies, provides, and monitors immunization services for the public. The program also develops and implements an annual strategy for utilization of State-supplied influenza vaccines, including distribution to non-profit healthcare centers throughout the County. Through the development of partnerships and collaborative activities, the program strives to expand immunization services, promote best practices, and improve coverage rates among children, adolescents, and adults within the County.
Through the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Immunization Grant funding, HHSA Public Health will provide the following services: vaccine accountability and management; access to and utilization of quality immunization services; utilization of California Immunization Registry; perinatal Hepatitis B prevention; education, information and training partnerships; prevention, surveillance and control of vaccine preventable diseases; promotion of childcare and school immunization entry requirements; and utilization of influenza vaccines provided by CDPH.
The proposed amendment decreases funds for Fiscal Years 2019-22 due to federal budgetary constraints. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have provided California with base funding levels, which results in decreased funding availability for existing local assistance immunization grant agreements. The reduction in funding requires a revised Scope of Work, which ultimately reflects fewer required activities.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Return to staff for alternative handling.
