Title

University of Chicago, Extension for Community Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program, $2,500 - Zun

 

Body

The LCHD is a participant in the ECHO program led by the University of Chicago. The ECHO program provides opportunities for providers to complete online modules on specific health topics (i.e., ADHD, childhood obesity, Hep C, etc.). If LCHD providers complete a required number of modules, LCHD receives a payment of $2,500. Funds are for state fiscal year 2020 which runs from July 1, 2019 - June 30, 2020. There are no stipulations on how these grant dollars are to be used. LCHD is choosing to allocate them to cover the interface costs associated with connecting a new ultrasound machine to Nextgen.

 

Suggested Motion

To approve $2,500 in funding from the University of Chicago, Extension for Community Health Outcomes program to be used to help fund the interface for connecting a new ultrasound machine to Nextgen.
