2. Health Agenda Goal #5c Measurements to Date - Denver Health started the 2010-11 school year with a total of 12 School-Based Health Centers in Denver Public Schools. At the end of the year, this number increased to 13 full-time clinics. - Currently students attending 22 “satellite” schools may access services at one of the existing School-Based Health Centers. - It is anticipated that 8,300 students will receive services in one of the School-Based Health Centers by the end of the school year. - It is projected that district students will visit School-Based Health Centers more than 20,000 times for medical care, 9,000 times for mental health care, and 6,000 times for reproductive health education by the end of the school year. - By the end of the school year, more than 350 insurance enrollment events will be hosted at School-Based Health Center sites, resulting in more than 4,500 individuals enrolled in some type of health insurance or health discount plan.

3. Other Developments and Implications - Denver Health spearheaded legislation in the form of House Bill 11- 1019 that allows all School-Based Health Centers in Colorado to bill private insurance companies yet waive collection of co-pays and deductibles from students. Collection of payment from private payers will help clinics be more sustainable. The bill was signed into law in March 2011. - Starting in school year 2011-12 the School-Based Health Center at Manual High School will be opened to all neighboring Denver Public School students. - Denver Health will request funding from the Colorado Health Foundation for expansion funding for two new School-Based Health Centers over the next three years. An application will be submitted in the fall of 2011. - During the 2010-11 school year, Denver Health conducted 59 immunization clinics at district elementary and middle schools without a school-based health center. 3,393 children received more than 5,200 flu and adolescent vaccines.
