E. Relay Agreement Vote Debbie Deem 5 m
Relay is a company that assists with the filing of Medicaid submissions and reports in conjunction with Special Education services. We have been working with Relay for several years on their basic plan at $7,000.
By upgrading the plan at a rate of $9,500, they will provide additional assistance with reporting and finding Medicaid funding opportunities. We fully anticipate increasing the income from Medicaid more than the cost of this service. Additionally, it will save staff time in conjunction with the submissions and reports.
Requesting the approval of the Relay agreement for $9,500.
