Purchase of Service Agreement with Larimer County Board of
Subjecttnuul S a iuun i b
Enclosed for Board approval is a Purchase of Services Agreement between
the Weld County Division of Human Resources' Area Agency on Aging and the
Larimer County Board of Commissioners. The Agreement allows the Larimer
County Long Term Care Ombudsman to respond to complaints filed against the
Weld County Home and Community Based Services' Case Management Program
(HCBS) .
This is a backup agreement to cover such instances due to the fact that
the Weld County Ombudsman supervises the HCBS Program and it is a conflict
for the ombudsman to investigate complaints on a program she supervises.
Human Resources will reimburse Larimer County at $15.00 per hour,
including travel time. Mileage will be reimbursed at .25 cents per mile.
If you have questions, please telephone me or Linda Piper at 353-3816.
