Ms. <br /> Compton advised that 38% of the individuals seen have no coverage which means that Axis <br /> receives no funds at all for providing services which is why the grant funds requested are <br /> important. <br /> Chairperson Sedlak confirmed with Ms. Compton that the dentists providing services are all <br /> fulltime. Ms. Compton noted they are paid dentists and not volunteers. <br /> Commissioner Powers was advised by Ms. Compton that patients are mainly from the Tri- <br /> Valley area although about 10% seen are from Contra Costa County. <br /> Chairperson Sedlak questioned Ms. Compton on the anticipated wait time for those people on <br /> the waitlist. He was informed that it is anticipated to be approximately six months. <br /> Human Services Commission <br /> March 4, 2020 <br /> Page 1 <br />
