In addition to provision of immunizations, WCDPHE will provide technical support to community physician offices on the complex immunization schedules, conduct reminder/recall activities, and maintain accurate and timely reporting of immunizations to the Colorado Immunization Information System (CIIS). Assistant Weld County Attorney, Karin McDougal, has reviewed the this amended contract and determined that its terms are acceptable.
