NEW BUSINESS Proposal to Address Health Department Dental Program Facility Needs - Dr. William F. Pilkington Dr. William F. Pilkington, Health Director, discussed the poor condition of the Health Department's dental trailer and the lack of dental care services for Medicaid eligible children in Cabarrus County. He presented two options for the Board's consideration: (1) Purchase a new self-driven mobile unit at an estimated cost of $199,000.00 to $240,000.00 or lease a new motorized unit at a cost of $3,999.00-$2,599.00 per month; or (2) Site the current dental unit at the Health Department at a cost of $8,205.00. In conclusion, Dr. Pilkington explained that both alternatives would help address the dental needs of Cabarrus County children. However, he stated a new unit would provide easy access for children in need of dental care and would generate revenue each year for payment toward the cost of the new unit. During discussion, Commissioners Casper and Niblock spoke in support of the new dental unit. However, Chairman Barnhart and Commissioners Mills and Fennel asked to defer action on the matter pending further study. No action was taken by the Board.
