SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Danny Tan, DDS provides dental services at his Salinas office to patients referred by Natividad Medical Center’s NIDO (Natividad Immunology Division Outpatient) Clinic. The NIDO Clinic is a comprehensive primary care clinic that provides services, including referrals for dental services, to people over the age of eighteen 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 Agreement with Dr. Tan so that he may continue to provide services to NIDO patients without interruption. Funding for this Agreement is contingent upon the availability of grant funds. Should such funding be cancelled, this Agreement may be terminated with little notice according to the terms of the Agreement.
