Explanation
Ordinance number 0761-2013, approved by City Council on April 1, 2013, authorized the Board of Health to enter into a contract with The Ohio State University, James Cancer Hospital in the amount of $1,114.00 to provide Laboratory Testing and Diagnostic Services to assure quality medical care to eligible persons living with HIV or AIDS in central Ohio (Franklin, Licking, Delaware, Morrow, Union, Madison, Pickaway and Fairfield counties) for the contract period of April 1, 2013 through February 28, 2014.
