The local health department (LHD) PHEP work plan for BP4 was published today. The PHEP work plan for tribes will be out early next week.
LHD EPCs should also note that Attachment III of the Comprehensive Contract was updated this year. All three documents will be posted in the Document Library of the MIHAN at: Documents -> Local Health -> EPC General -> PHEP BP4 FY 2022-2023. There is the usual signature page at the end of each work plan. The signature page for LHDs must be returned to DEPR no later than July 25, 2022.
DEPR is pleased to announce that Jason Smith is the new Healthcare and Public Health Policy Specialist and Emergency Management Coordinator. His contact information remains the same. This means that Jeannie Byrne is now your primary contact for all things medical countermeasures.
