FY2002-2003 Consolidated Agreement with DHHS <br /> <br />The state anticipates level funding for the next fiscal year. The Health <br />Department will no longer be providing the Breast & Cervical Cancer Screening <br />Program funded by the CDC for women who do not have Medicare and are over <br />50. Despite our best efforts at outreach, the department cannot identify a <br />sufficient number of women to meet program requirements. Efforts have been <br />made to encourage another provider in the county to take on this program. <br /> <br />The state consolidated agreement is anticipated to provide $466,848 federal <br />and state dollars to the county to provide specific services for fiscal year 2002-
