County to pay $100 per employee for cardiovascular ultrasound screenings as program moves to new space
Summary
Committee heard that Artery Ultrasound services will move to free up space and target cardiovascular screening for people 40+ or with qualifying conditions; the county will cover the negotiated $100 per‑person cost and the program remains within monthly budget projections.
George Mauldin reported plans to relocate Artery Ultrasound services to free up approximately 30 units of space and described the clinic's focus on cardiovascular screening for people aged 40 and older or those with qualifying underlying conditions. "No co-pay will be required from employees - the county covers the $100 per person cost," Mauldin said, noting the county negotiated the fee and the program remains within budget.
Mauldin characterized the cardiovascular clinic as well regarded and said the county's monthly budget for the program is approximately $200,000, which he described as manageable within current allocations. The committee did not take further action on the space move at this meeting.
