$400,000 will be reprogrammed from HT0.PDM01C.PROVIDER DATA MANAGEMENT

HT0.MES23C.DCAS RELEASE 3 (Project 100468), Contractual Services-Other (7132001).

Why are the funds available?

Pharmacy Benefits Manager System Refresh and Project 100472 - Provider Data Management
System Refresh.

What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?

changes and upgrades to the system.

What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and
the impact on the program or agency?
No negative impact is anticipated as a result of this reprogramming.
