PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. In order to process payment for medical claims, the Department is soliciting the services from a Third Party Administrator (TPA) to review, adjudicate and process payment in an accurate and efficient manner. Each division will have their own separate program for adjudicating and paying claims. This includes payment, reimbursement rates, providers, and plan dates. With respect to services provided to County Corrections, Medical Clinic and Xxxx Xxxxx, facility bills will be presented to the TPA in a standard UB-04 format. The bills shall be valued by the TPA at the Orange County contracted rate for each facility. Professional services shall be presented in a standard Health Care Financing Administration CMS/HCFA 1500 format and adjudicated based on applicable provider fee schedule, unless their TPA receives notification from the County to adjudicate the claim at a different rate. Any change to a fee schedule requires a thirty (30) day notification to the TPA prior to the effective date of the change. The county will advance $400,000 for each program to pay claims. The funds shall be kept in a separate bank account and reconciliation shall be completed and sent to each program on a weekly basis. The reconciliation report shall include the number of the check used to pay the claim, claim ID number (specific to the TPA), patient ID number (assigned by each program), last name, first name, provider name, billed rate, paid rate, and date of service. The report shall accompany an invoice from the vendor for reconciliation services. There shall be four invoices and reconciliation reports sent out weekly: Xxxx Xxxxx medical claims, Xxxx Xxxxx dental claims, Medical Clinic and Corrections Health claims. The county will replenish the deposit for the amount paid in claims by the TPA.

PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. This Annual Program Statement (APS) outlines the intent to establish public-partnerships to evaluate, develop, and/or broaden deployment of transgenic technologies conferring tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, heat and for improving nitrogen use efficiency in rice and wheat. Through this APS, USAID will facilitate the evaluation of selected technologies under field conditions in India, the most promising of which may be selected for further development and delivery to Indian farmers, and, eventually South Asian farmers. Private-sector firms are especially encouraged to apply, though all technology developers will be considered, including public and private universities and research institutions. This project will focus on advanced stages of the product development process, beginning with the evaluation of a range of promising trait-crop combinations in field trials under local conditions and continuing with the development of a regulatory package and deployment strategy for selected technologies. For each technology selected, USAID intends to support partnerships that may include any combination of the technology provider, an Indian public sector institution and/or an Indian private sector partner. Through this APS USAID will provide initial grants to technology providers and their partners for the purpose of evaluating selected technologies under field conditions in India, and where results are sufficiently promising, develop a plan to commercialize the technology. After a period of 2-3 years, USAID expects to select several of these technologies for further field testing, product development, biosafety data package assembly and eventual delivery of improved varieties to farmers. Technology providers may build on existing collaborations and establish partnerships themselves or request USAID assistance in identifying appropriate public and/or private partners in India. Future support for this program is subject to the availability of funding, and USAID may choose to support all, some or none of the selected technologies in future funding cycles through other mechanisms. In addition to providing grants, USAID may leverage additional contributions, both financial and in-kind, from other donors. USAID may provide assistance, if needed, in selecting partners and/or developing a commercialization strategy for each technology. USAID may also provide assistance, if needed, with […*…] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUM...
PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. The overall goal of this project was to demonstrate biochar use in a conventional agricultural operation in coastal San Mateo County, and provide an overview of the effects and feasibility of the practice in the region. Specific project objectives included: Monitoring the use of biochar on a local Brussels sprouts farm to gain an understanding of its impacts on crop production, soil health, nutrient retention (e.g. nitrate leaching) and carbon sequestration Assessing the cost benefit of biochar use to local farmers and identifying potential barriers and opportunities

PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. The Technical Subcommittee developed a formal decision-making structure to evaluate the feasibility of reestablishing fish passage at the Project. The overarching goal of fish passage as defined in that decision-making structure is to maximize ecosystem integrity. Ecosystem integrity was further defined by the Technical Subcommittee to include three primary components: connectivity, biodiversity, and natural production. The objectives of the Fish Passage Plan are: • To contribute to recovery efforts for Middle Columbia steelhead; • Establish self-sustaining, harvestable populations of summer steelhead trout (“steelhead”), spring-run chinook salmon (“spring chinook”), and sockeye salmon (“sockeye”) in the Deschutes River Basin to fully utilize the available habitat and production capability; • Provide access to and through Project waters for Pacific lamprey, summer-run / fall-run chinook salmon, rainbow (redband) trout, bull trout, and other native fish species; • Provide access to habitat to support a self-sustaining fishery; and • Support the contribution of salmon, steelhead, and other native species to a healthy ecosystem. Progress towards achieving ecosystem integrity following reestablishment of fish passage will be evaluated through a long-term monitoring plan to be developed in consultation with the Fish Committee. The monitoring plan will detail specific data-collection protocols and metrics that will provide quantitative information to assess the degree of connectivity, biodiversity, and natural production in the Project area through the term of the New License. Overall progress towards achieving the objective of self-sustaining harvestable populations of steelhead, chinook, and sockeye will be evaluated by determining the number of returning adults (recruits) per spawning fish (R/S ratio) for each of the species of interest. The R/S ratio will be determined annually for the life of the New License. While runs are building, each generation will need to produce more spawners than the previous generation (R/S>1.0). A self-sustaining population, by definition, must have a median R/S ratio not less than 1.0. Other specific metrics representing the objectives of the fish passage program relate to facility performance and survival of upstream migrating adult fish and downstream migrating juvenile fish through the Project.

PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. A. Keep schools safe by developing relationships with youth and families through community policing strategies. Citizens of the school community will be provided a means to offer input regarding services of the SRO Program.
PROGRAM GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. The results framework (see Section I.F. Program Approach) and corresponding performance monitoring plan (Annex 14--PMEP1) provide PCI IO, PCI field staff, and key MOH/NCS Regional and District level staff with a set of guidelines and management tools for providing overall project oversight. At the same time, a key deliverable initiated during the M&E Workshop was a second set of tools for sub-district managers and district level supervisors. As per workshop objectives (see Annex 2), a first level of sub-results, initial (first 2 years) project activity workplan, and corresponding performance monitoring plan were conceptualized and drafted by participants, as a means to operationalize the project design at its first levels of operation: the community and sub-districts. These local management tools were finalized through a facilitated, step-wise process that continued into the weeks following the workshop; and represent significant contribution from field-based partners (Annex 14 --PMP2). Now familiar and comfortable with Managing for Results methodology, partners will be using the PMP, with on-going technical assistance, as a management tool during project implementation. The summary presentations below show (for each IR) the subresults and activities that will be monitored by local managers; the causal relationship between the two levels of sub and lower level results; and the catalytic or driving effect that specific activities and processes are expected to have in the achievement of these results. Though the results framework tends to be linear in nature, the project will function more as an interrelated, multidimensional, circular system. For example, improved health management (IR1) leads to increased access (IR2); Improved multi- sector coordination (LLR2.1) leads to improved health management (IR1). See Section II.J, Workplan, for a summary of all major activities. See PMPs (Annex 14) for information on indicators and related measurement information.
