Memorandum
TO: Kevin Ross, Chair, Board of County
Commissioners
FROM: Jason Chessher, Director of public Health and
Environment
DATE: June 18, 2024
SUBJECT: Donation for 2025 Community Health Survey
The UC Health donation of $10,000 is for the Weld County Department of Public Health and
Environment's new Reward Incentive Program for the 2025 Weld County Community Health
Survey. In prior surveys, Weld County has not used a reward incentive primarily due to logistic
and financial constraints of offering them. However, the Health Department has determined that
given the declining response rates of especially young respondents, the sizeable respondent
burden in answering a lengthy survey, and increasing costs, a reward incentive program needs to
be introduced in 2025. These funds received in 2024 will be an encumbrance and rolled to 2025.
The Health Department Data Unit has researched best practices for implementing reward
incentives for mail -based population health surveys and determined that using a conditional
monetary reward once a participant completes their survey is the best reward option for Weld
County's survey. This option keeps costs down and allows for appropriate accounting of this
expenditure which is important for government -initiated surveys. Internally, Health Department
and County leadership are very supportive of building an effective reward incentive program for
the Weld Community Health Survey.
Local partners will be asked in 2024 to commit to donating funds by Spring 2025. It is the goal
of the Health Department to establish the survey reward incentive program with some non-
governmental funds to help defray the cost of reward incentives, vendor and contractor fees, and
potential additional mail and printing costs. Use of these partner, non -governmental funds will
also promote community partnership and trust. UC Health was asked if they were interested in
partnering and providing funding through a donation for this Reward Incentive Program and they
agreed.
Partners that provide funds, will:
- Be acknowledged as a sponsor on survey materials and at all survey presentation events.
- Be able to receive a custom survey finding report.
- Be given priority in consideration of possible new health -related survey questions.
