HB 2094 Letter to Colleagues

Sara Spinks - noemail@kalhd.org — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 20:00:00 GMT

December 29, 2011

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), vaccinations are one of the ten great public health achievements of the twentieth century. Vaccines have reduced or eliminated many diseases that once killed or seriously harmed infants, children, and adults.

Vaccines provide protection not only to the individual receiving the immunization but also to others in the community who are unable to be fully immunized due to age or medical reasons. When immunization rates decrease, the risk of outbreak of preventable illness increases. When an outbreak of a preventable illness occurs there is a very real cost to the community including severe illness or death of the affected individuals, loss of productivity when children and parents must miss work or school, and the cost of medical care, hospitalization, and treatment for exposed individuals to help prevent the spread of the disease.

On January 18, at 1:30 in room 784 in the Docking State Office Building, the House Health and Human Services committee of the Kansas Legislature is holding a hearing on HB 2094 regarding expansion of philosophical exemptions to immunizations for children receiving care at licensed child care facilities or attending public school. Under the proposal, a child would not have to receive the required vaccinations if the child care facility or school has on record written statement signed by a parent or guardian of the child that the parent or guardian of the child declines immunization for reasons of conscience or personal beliefs.

The current statute provides exemptions to required vaccinations based upon the child’s health or family’s religious convictions. We believe the current statutory exemptions are sufficient, and furthermore, that efforts to increase the allowable exemptions leading to decreased vaccination rates pose a significant risk to the health and well-being of Kansans.

The Kansas Association of Local Health Departments (KALHD) will provide testimony in opposition to this bill. We urge you to join with us and provide testimony, either in-person or in writing, to share your concerns and information about the very real risks posed by this proposal with your local legislators as well as members of the committee, as we work together to protect the public health.

Sincerely,

Claudia Blackburn Michelle Ponce

H1N1 Expenditures Survey

noemail@kalhd.org — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 14:00:00 GMT

Objectives: To ascertain the status of expenditures of the Public Health Emergency Response (PHER) Grant.

Release Date: 12-Mar-10 8:00 AM
Expiration Date: 9-Apr-10 8:00 AM

The Public Health Emergency Response (PHER) grant for H1N1 response activites will close on July 30, 2010. All funds must be expended by that time. The staff of the KDHE Bureau of Public Health Preparedness and your KALHD Preparedness Team have developed the following questions to ascertain the status of those funds. While we know that it is difficult to estimate the exact figures for some expenses, we ask that you answer to the best of your ability.

We have also included four questions on your designated Public Information and Communications (PIC) lead and backup.

We ask that you complete this survey by April 1, 2010.

Thank you for your assistance. If you have any questions, please contact Sara Spinks at sspinks@kansascounties.org or 785-271-8391.

Connection to the KSWebIZ Immunization Registry

noemail@kalhd.org — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:00:00 GMT

Objectives: To document lessons learned from the installation of the connection from the Client management System (KIPHS/PHClinic or QS/Insight) to KSWebIZ and to identify requests for additional functionality.

Release Date: 21-Oct-09 10:00 AM
Expiration Date: 23-Nov-09 10:00 AM

Dear Administrator:

Immunize Kansas Kids is a project to increase timely childhood immunization, funded by the Kansas Health Foundation, sponsored by the Kansas Health Institute with assistance from KDHE and KALHD. One focus of this project is to assist local health departments' connection to the statewide KSWebIZ immunization registry for agencies currently using KIPHS/PHClinic or QS/Insight. Most of you have completed the connection process so you can exchange immunization information with the Registry. We'd like your feedback on the connection process, ease of use, current use and suggestions for additional modifications to help support your efforts to keep your clients healthy.

We've sent this survey to you so that you can choose the most appropriate staff members to complete the questions. Some may best be answered by you, some by the Immunization Program manager and some by those who use KIPHS/PHClinic or QS /Insight to enter Immunization information. We've noted which questions that we think might be best answered by the Administrator or Immunization Program manager.

Attached are copies of the questions so that you can review these, have someone assemble information to complete this survey in one session and submit for tabulation.

Please submit these responses prior to Monday, November 23. We know that this is a busy time of year for you but feel that its important for us to hear your views on these topics. Thank you for your help.
