SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:

The NIDO Clinic is a comprehensive primary care clinic that provides services, including referrals for dental services, to people over the age of 13 with HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases. Such dental services are funded by the Ryan White Modernization Act Parts B & C grants. The Ryan White Modernization Act Early Intervention Services Program is intended to expand counseling, testing and referral services for persons at high risk for HIV infection in order to expand enrollment in culturally and linguistically appropriate HIV/AIDS medical treatment, with particular emphasis on the Latino community. NMC wishes to amend the current Agreement with Dr. Tan to continue to provide dental services to NIDO patients without interruption.

Should such funding be cancelled, this Agreement may be terminated with little notice according to the terms of the Agreement.

The additional $75,000 is equal the reimbursement for projected services provided during the period July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013.
