Title X Family Planning Services
The Program is a federally Title X funded program with funding from the State of Tennessee. Title X is legally designed to prioritize the needs of individuals from low-income families and/or uninsured people including those who are not eligible for TennCare who might not otherwise have access to these health care services. These services are provided to low-income and uninsured individuals at reduced or no cost. Its overall purpose is to promote positive birth outcomes and healthy families by allowing individuals to decide the number and spacing of their children. The other health services provided in Title X funded clinics are integral in achieving this objective. Confidential, patient-friendly services are provided to males and women of child-bearing age (from menstruation through menopause) with a primary focus on pre-conceptual health.
The County wishes to engage in a contractual relationship with the best-qualified proposer selected through a competitive process that will work well with the County in the performance of the Services in a manner that is cost-effective and practical of which price is but one of the selection criteria.
