insurance claims. Mrs. Stone left the training after 45 minutes and did not return, so she
was given the opportunity to resign or be fired and she resigned. We will be advertising for
a billing clerk.

towards the northeast corner. The WIC program will pay for most of the repairs and then
Mr. Andy Fasken will pay for the remaining amount.

"Zika" virus. Mr. Sadath reminded everyone to wear long sleeves, and spray containing
Beet. The Paris -Lamar County Health District has packages of information to pass out
instructing how to draw samples and where to send them. The City of Paris has log sheets
and making public service announcements.
• Immunization Audit — We had a very good immunization audit with only a few findings.
Nothing major.
• Malpractice Policy and Approval - Dr. Sherry Scott is currently working for the Paris -Lamar
County Health District and she does not have any personal liability insurance. Dr. Scott is
getting insurance and the Paris -Lamar County Health District will pay a percentage of the
