so in 2016-2017 we are to propose ongoing reductions that are equal to one percent of the general fund budget that's a $31,531. >> so it's been the case in many years as far as i remember departments are ruk9d to prioritize operating efficiency we can also submit enhancement requests that increase to provide additional services increase the personnel or enrich programming behind the base budget they'll prioritize ongoing proposing paroles and the proposals must be sported by

analytical base approach what i'm causing augment you shuns they're to address i think areas those are similar to pillars that have been established by prior things that the mayor want to achieve the first is and tyler kind of vague. >> pam pam i think we can see those they're in the materials i understand the importance of enthusiastic way the pillars of augusttion. >> director dodd. >> i believe the total on that groundtion relate to serving the public not enhancing the service for employees it maifrs makes it more difficult to find our needs for additional fund in the

context of serving the public. >> so thank you. >> one of the - so when the original discussions were done when the mayor come to the director and explained what the budget instructions and came to the cfo there were only a few of the goals when we actually issued the budget you instructions they added one other interesting area and that is cross departmental collaboration this may be something that we can look at in terms of and i'm just throwing an idea out it is not necessarily what would happen but in terms of of emerge of member services connections with the other departments so that

maybe an area so the next steps we have to pit together a proposed departmental budget and bring it to you in november right now staff is working on their proposals we will come pile those and put those together and make decisions and then forward that on to you for approval those the budget will safer the mayors instructions and propose ongoing reductions and as itch as possible if proposing embarrassment that meets the goals we'll be implementing the strategic plan. >> okay. thank you. >> are there. >> i have a couple of slides on

the schedule if you want me to go through that or you want me to address the issues. >> i'd like to address the issues the whole process is come back to us in february that way we can reinforce those steps having the action tied to it so are there questions of pam at this point of progress. >> at the 205 where do i see that broke down when i look at that. >> you don't this - in terms of the monthly report it is in there but hard to see that's right why when i come back to you i'll work on a better depiction of what it is spent on. >> i'd like to see it as a

separate item is that possible so you you know it's a separate and on an ongoing basis. >> yes. i can work on that. >> there's not much change between months because many of the - a good amount of 205 budget is projects but i will be glald glad to bring forward a schedule. >> particle on a fiscal year basis you're trying to put together the expenditures i'll agree with commissioner breslin it's good to see those as we go forward. >> i'll be glad to do that. >> are there questions or comments from the board all

right. any any public comment on this item? if not thank you secretary i'm to take the privilege of chair and ask that we take a ohio gene break untilave - the members on board as we'll have a external candidate that will take will be a half an hour i'm going to ask for certain action items and certainty other items on the agenda we'll defer until the next items the action items i'm calling for us to take up on the agenda are action item 12 action item 15 and action item

ordering the 2015 board election for one expiring term and 30 years staff to proceed with the election director dodd. >> you all know we need to do that every time we have i'd like read the resolve this is the elected seat 2015 that it be kushthd by itself director of elections and that nominations be made from february to march 9 and ballets marked inclusive that didn't make sense if they're taking office on my 15 does that. >> oh the term expires on the 15 but they take office then.

>> if there's not a challenge if it's an unchallenged race we'll not have to have an election. >> yes. >> all right. you've heard the resolution is the chair read to entertain a motion. >> he move we move for the health service board election and is there a second. >> it's enrolling moved but we take the resolution as printed and read discussion by the board members public comment? hearing known i'm ready to take the vote all in favor, say i. opposed? >> the next action item is action item 15. >> item 15 action item notification of kaiser

investigation review board rewarding diabetes. >> as you recall this is the slide 5 under the wellness tab should be inserted we've been working with kaiser a year almost identifying the potential research projects we've finally come up with a great project and in order to kaiser to move through their bureaucracies they need to be sure we can do this so stephanie and where is this slide. >> it's in tab 5. >> under tab 5 with the director's report in the wellness section adversities right before the, true vin analysis. >> unfortunately, there's two tabs there's december and january and it's slide 5.

>> i'll give you mine karen. >> you can precede please. all right. >> all right. >> so to give you a little bit of background how we came to be here the kaiser permanente appendix d has the transparency accountability and wellness to one of those was the kaiser permanente with collaborative with h sf for 9 wellness of the group men's we've been working with them to come up with a research study woefrth of those dollars to help to expand our initiative. >> weight of the testimony be working with kaiser permanente division of research so as we

wlooktd this i wanted to cover a topic of diabetes is a huge cost driver and hive prevalent about 80 percent of folks suffer from those and people that have kaiser insurance that's the number 3 cost driver in our theerpg drugs with cost members as this is a wellness study we're looking at to halt diabetes when you look at the population it is even greater folks that are 20 years and older without the lifestyle changes with those with prediabetes will develop

diabetes in 5 years modest wealthy loss can delay it up to 57 percent so the original research from the diabetes with the partnership of the ad c after 3 years a lifestyle intervention is the lense that in the study at the looked the forum which is a drug that helps to prevent twbz and after 10 years down to 18 percent. >> so building on that research the diabetes premise program a 7 percent reduction in weight and fell activity each week the h f

study to evaluate the base outcomes the diabetes prevention hadn't done that so our research questions is which of the two diabetes prevention leave style interferences works and one not works well has a greater wealthy loss we know it's great if you have a great interference that works but if you can't get people to do it so people are here potentially being able to sustain greater engagement looking at those based on the work setting the city has a good type of work that we do so how does the effectiveness of this program differ from the work program my request we're seeking

approval to move forward with the research project and seek approval through the kaiser permanente northern california institutional i rb 80s provide ethnical protection. >> you've heard the recommendation are there questions or comments. >> two interferences you'll be using two. >> yes. a random trial the work site versus the add that people can use at home so see if it's more effective or less than effective than the work site setting those are more sustainable the community programs can be costing so we wanted to see the defensive between the interferences we'll be able to continue in the future as opposed to testing

something we'll not be able to afford. >> i'm talking about the drugs. >> we're not looking want drug only the lifestyle. >> oh. >> even up against drugs the lifestyle did better. >> there's programs with diabetes but very this for prediabetes and last week blue shield is very expensive which is ridiculous to have to get a doctor's referral i don't know why you have to get a doctor's referral to go to o a prediabetes class but there's not near enough emphasis on the prediabetes. >> other questions or comments or altercations from the board. >> one question so once we approve those result studies it

will be in the greater wellness program you'll have an update occupants the results. >> yes. >> okay. great. >> is there a - i'm ready to entertain a motion. >> i max make a motion. >> that's a second and third (laughter). >> any other discussion? comments? public comment r.c. sf president i'm hoping you can do something for workplace programs there are several programs where there are high rates of diabetes and prediabetes when i was at mta or muni i saw the drivers it was really difficult part of the problem getting the departments to really cooperate and hoping

help give employees just like every hour 3 to 5 minute activity break a break from work or part of their state announced work break it helps them become nor active and not glued to their desks so i really hope that this program can enforced i'd like to see a happier and healthy workplace i want to add all my colleagues they're on a drug that has terrible side effects i hope there be a better drug that didn't impact in their ability to get to work on time this is a great program the retirees support it we want to

see more of this we'll support the workforce >> all in favor, say i. of the motion as proposed i. >> opposed? the same sign or a different sign we'll move on the motion is carried we'll noting now move to action item 16 which the presentation of the strategic plan. >> dobd. >> the strategic plan is before you, you post the governance meeting yesterday we'll be adding some additional detail but probably the new sections are related to wellness and data analysis and itch of it it it did not
