Dear Mr.Hogan and Ms.Thomas,
SHDHD appreciates your current support for South Heartland/Adams County Immunization Clinic(Vaccine for Children
Program,Adult Immunization Program)provided by the Adams County Board.This program protects at risk community
members,who are uninsured,underinsured or on Medicaid,from vaccine-preventable diseases.While the vaccines are
provided at no cost through the federally funded programs,there are no funds provided to administer the vaccine-
which includes wages/taxes/worker's comp/unemployment for a part-time clinic manager,vaccinators,immunization
registry staff and clerical staff,plus any office or other supplies and equipment.South Heartland has been awarded some
federal pass-through funding from NE DHHS which covers a portion of these costs.In addition,Mary Lanning Healthcare
graciously donated immunization supplies(syringes,needles,etc.)to support this program.
From June 2022-June 2023,SHDHD completed another full year of immunization services for the Hastings/Adams
County greater community.Early in the COVID-19 pandemic we revised clinic protocols and workflow to protect our staff
and patients.This allowed us to continue providing vaccinations at a time when many children and adults fell behind
with important vaccinations. We administered 427 vaccines at 236 client visits during this fiscal year.
The department collected an average of$0.70 per patient visit in donations from patients(this is an average of$1.08 per
vaccine administered).Bases on the number of vaccines administered this year,Adams County provided another
$5.85/vaccine toward the vaccine administration cost,as did the City of Hastings.
Based on our annual costs to administer this program,which includes vaccine storage and monitoring,scheduling
appointments,data reporting to NE DHHS Immunization program,staffing in clinic,interpretation services,education
and promotion of immunizations,administration of vaccine,and program evaluation,the patient donations covered
approximately 1.24%,City funds 6.76%,County funds 6.76%and South Heartland covered 85.24%of the costs with
funding from the NE Immunization Program.
The sustainability of the program under our oversight continues to depend on local funding from Adams County and the
City of Hastings.Therefore,I respectfully request that the Adams County Board include South Heartland's
Hastings/Adams County Immunization Clinic in the County's FY 2023-2024 budget.We are requesting even funding,an
annual amount of$2500,to help offset costs for this program.
Budget Request:$2500
