COMMISSIONERS
MEETING DATE: October 18, 2023
SUBJECT: Oregon Health Authority grant agreement #180009-2 and Resolution No. 2023-
060 converting 1.0 limited duration FTE to regular and increasing appropriations
in the Health Services Fund
RECOMMENDED MOTIONS:
1) Move approval of Chair signature of Document No. 2023-902, Oregon Health
Authority agreement #180009-2.
2) Move approval of Resolution No.2023-060 to convert 1.0 limited duration FTE to a
regular FTE position and increase appropriations within the Heath Services Fund
and the 2023-24 Deschutes County Budget.
3) Move approval to extend the end date to use ARPA funding earmarked for Health
Services through December 2026 to be used for the original purposes set forth by
the Board of County Commissioners.
BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
Oregon Health Authority (OHA) intergovernmental agreement (IGA) #180009, approved by
the Board of County Commissioners on June 28, 2023, outlined program descriptions and
reporting requirements for Deschutes County, the Local Public Health Authority (LPHA), for
fiscal year (FY) 2024 and 2025, and provided funding for most Program Elements (PEs) for
FY 2024.
This amendment #2 modifies program element descriptions for three PEs: PE 12 - Public
Health Emergency Preparedness and Response (PHEPR), PE 44 - School Based Health Centers
(SBHC), and PE 51 - Public Health Modernization. Additionally, the amendment awards
anticipated funding totaling $922,746 for the following Program Elements:
• $197,456 for PE 01-01 State Support for Public Health
• $83,935 for PE 12-01 Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response
•-$10,928 for PE 44-02 SBHC - Mental Health Expansion
• $652,283 for PE 51-01 LPHA Leadership, Governance and Program Implementation
(Public Health Modernization)
Health Services is requesting to convert one Public Health Program Manager from limited
duration to regular FTE position effective January 1, 2024. As Public Health continues to move
toward implementation of PH Modernization, our next step is to focus on the foundational
capabilities of Emergency Preparedness, Community Partnership Development, and Risk
Communications. Currently, the limited duration Emergency Preparedness and COVID
Recovery Manager position has been implementing and overseeing much of this work and we
want to sustain this core capacity and expertise. The Public Health Program Manager will
continue to provide leadership and oversight of public health emergency preparedness and
response activities, community based organization partnerships and engagement, assessment
of community need and services as well as strategic and risk communication, and
epidemiology of emerging public health threats. This position would be funded through
additional PE 51-01 PH Modernization funds received in this biennium. Should funding no
longer support the position, DCHS will consider the future of this position within the budgeting
process.
Currently the Public Health Manager position is funded through December 31, 2024 by
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. As this position will now be funded by OHA for this
time period, DCHS is requesting the end date to use these ARPA funds be extended through
December 2026, for use by DCHS and used according to the original purpose —community -
wide Emergency Preparedness activities, supporting emerging community health issues, and
community outreach related to COVID-19 and other public health threats.
BUDGET IMPACTS:
Recognizing State grant revenue of $922,746, and increasing appropriations within
Program Expense in the amount of $88,264 in the 2023-24 Health Services budget to fund
the Public Health Manager for fiscal year 2024, which was formerly funded by the ARPA
fund.
