84. TB CONTROL INCENTIVE PROGRAM FY2019 Approve the acceptance and use of incentive vouchers from the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) to Maricopa County by and through its Department of Public Health (MCDPH), TB Clinic (TB), TB Control-Incentive Program. The MCDPH TB Clinic has received a donation of 1,061 vouchers with a total value of $14,000. Gift card and voucher donations have been received by the TB program for a number of years. We expect they will reoccur. Cash and/or in-kind match is not applicable nor are ongoing cash contributions required should they cease to be provided to the program. TB Services are a mandated function and donations such as these incentivize the treatment program. Awareness and treatment of TB patients is a benefit to our citizens. To our knowledge, the donations to the TB program are not given in a competitive manner. Program costs associated with the donations are absorbed by the TB programs grant budget. Administration costs are absorbed the department’s operating budget. MCDPH’s indirect rate for FY2018-19 is 18.9%. Indirect cost is not collected on non-cash and/or in-kind donations, therefore indirect expense in the amount of $2646 is unrecoverable. Program costs associated with the donations are absorbed by the TB programs grant budget. Administration costs are absorbed the department’s operating budget. Grant revenues are not local revenues for the purpose of the constitutional expenditure limitation, and therefore expenditure of the revenues is not prohibited by the budget law. This donation does not alter the budget constraining expenditures of local revenues duly adopted by the Board pursuant to A.R.S. §42-17105. The overall grant budget will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate this donation through a future reconciliation. Funding for this Agreement is provided by a Donation from ADHS and the American Lung Association of Arizona and will not affect the County’s general fund. (C-86-19-055-D-00)
