Proposed 2017 Fee Schedule Increases
For the Board's approval are the Health Department's proposed Environmental Health Services
("EHS") and Public Health Services ("PHS") fees schedules for 2017. Both a strike -through version
and the final versions of each are attached to aid in the Board's review.
ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SERVICES: A detailed review of the EHS fee schedule was made to
ensure that costs are adequately recovered across all sections of the EHS division. At the current
time only one fee increase is requested because our fees are reasonable and in -line with
providers of similar services. A number of fees were eliminated because a service wasn't being
utilized or is no longer needed. One lab fee was added to allow for the testing of Trichomonas.
As the BOCC may recall, Retail Food Establishment license fees were updated this past
September. Additionally, the fee schedule was updated to reflect the nomenclature change for
"septic systems" as they are now collectively referred to as Onsite Wastewater Treatment
Systems (OWTS). No changes were made to the EHS Household Hazardous Waste fee schedule.
PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES: A detailed review of the PHS fee schedule was made to ensure that
costs are adequately recovered across all clinic programs of the PHS division. All fees were
reviewed to establish that the Health Department is charging at least the Medicare
reimbursement rate for all services provided at the Health Department. For services that are not
covered by Medicare, the Medicaid reimbursement rate was used as a reimbursement floor.
Consistent with prior year fee schedule adjustments, following that comparison and after making
increases where appropriate, we increased our fees for all services and supplies by 2.5% across-
the-board. Again, this fee increase request is a modest increase compared to the medical rate of
inflation which is anticipated to be remain consistent at approximately 6.5% in 2017. Several
services were added to the fee schedule to provide more comprehensive care for our clinic
patients.
These fee schedules were approved for placement on the Board's agenda via pass -around dated
October 31, 2016. I recommend approval of these proposed fee schedules for the Health
Department.
