6 <br /> 1 Commissioner Dorosin said there are some fees listed as zero, and the next column <br /> 2 says, "delete". He asked if this is due to these services no longer being offered. <br /> 3 Quintana Stewart said this means her department got rid of a particular code. She <br /> 4 said her department still offers the service, but under another heading/appointment type. <br /> 5 She said her department gets its direction from the state. <br /> 6 Commissioner Price asked if there is an update regarding Family Success Alliance <br /> 7 (FSA). <br /> 8 Quintana Stewart said outreach and case management were shifted from high touch <br /> 9 to make it more fluid and flexible. She said not all families needed high touch management. <br /> 10 She said this freed up some time for the Navigators, which allowed them to reach out to <br /> 11 more families. She said one Navigator does a program called Family Connections, which is <br /> 12 for those families that are no longer in need of high touch management. <br /> 13 Quintana Stewart said she is also working with a newer program called the North <br /> 14 Carolina Integrated Care for Kids, which shares many of the same objectives and goals as <br /> 15 the FSA. She said effort is made to maximize both programs, and avoid duplicate services. <br /> 16 Commissioner Price asked if there is an update on Gateway. <br /> 17 Quintana Stewart said there are still navigators over there. <br /> 18 Commissioner Greene referred to page 230, connecting with formerly incarcerated <br /> 19 individuals with a disease, and asked if these numbers overlap with the re-entry council. <br /> 20 Quintana Stewart said these entities work closely together. <br /> 21 Commissioner Greene referred to providing medical services to the uninsured and <br /> 22 underinsured, and asked if there is a reason these numbers only start in 2019. She also <br /> 23 asked if the County covers the differences in expenses, when a patient is uninsured or <br /> 24 underinsured. <br /> 25 Quintana Stewart said if one is uninsured then one falls on the sliding scale, and if <br /> 26 one cannot pay at all then the County covers the cost. <br /> 27 Commissioner Greene asked if there is a reason that the number of child health visits <br /> 28 start in 2019. <br /> 29 Travis Myren said these services have been provided, but have only recently been <br /> 30 tracked.
