Service Contract Renewals for 2011-2012 <br /> <br />The amount of the contracts for most were unchanged, however the two school nurse contracts <br />show an increase. <br /> <br />Contract Renewal with UNC Family Medicine for Medical Director Services: <br />OCHD has maintained a contract with UNC Family Medicine for Medical Director services for a <br />number of years. Dr. Michael Fisher, who served in this capacity for many years, retired <br />effective September 30, 2010. Following a national search, Dr. Julie Monaco was selected as <br />the new Medical Director with primary back-up from Dr. Deborah Collins. <br /> <br />The 11-12 contract has no changes in it this year other than identifying Dr. Monaco as Medical <br />Director and Dr. Collins as primary back-up. It continues the contract at 28 hours per week, 22 <br />hours in clinic and 6 hours providing phone consultation, administrative duties, and back-up on- <br />call responsibilities. The 11-12 contract does not include a cost increase. The total amount of <br />the contract remains at $145,416 per year. <br /> <br />Contract Renewal with Robert DuPuis for Pharmacy Services: <br />The issuance of pharmaceuticals through our clinics or during epidemics/disasters necessitates <br />the services of a registered pharmacist. Robert Dupuis, Pharm. D., a Clinical Associate <br />Professor in the Division of Pharmacy Practice at the UNC School of Pharmacy, has served as <br />our Pharmacist for the past nine years. He has fulfilled his responsibilities well and is interested <br />in continuing to serve in this capacity. <br /> <br />There are several changes in the 11-12 Pharmacy Contract necessitated by requirements of the <br />Family Planning Agreement Addendum with the State. These include assisting with the <br />development of a pharmacy inventory tracking system, ensuring rotation of stock, and <br />establishing written procedures for processing Medicaid prescriptions. The contract does not <br />include a cost increase. The total amount of the contract remains at $12,036 per year. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
