CMH-Complex Medical Help Program

The Complex Medical Help Program (CMH) provides assistance to individuals with special health care needs and their families who meet the medical and financial eligibility criteria.  Assistance is provided to individuals under the age of 25 who have special health care needs and are residents of the State of Ohio.

Although the Complex Medical Help Program (CMH) covers a wide range of services, it is important to know CMH does not cover all the services an individual with special health care needs may require, nor are all services available for every diagnosis. Services must be related to the individual’s CMH-eligible condition.

Please contact the Columbiana County Health Department with questions about the CMH program, or to apply for services.

There are two types of tests used to detect TB bacteria in the body: the TB skin test and TB blood test. A positive TB skin test or TB blood test only tells that a person has been infected with TB bacteria. It does not tell whether the person has latent TB infection or has progressed to TB disease. Other tests, such as chest x-ray and a sample of sputum are needed to see whether the person has TB disease.

Diagnosis: If a person is found to be infected with TB bacteria, other tests are needed to see if the person has latent TB infection or TB disease.

The Health Department offers TB skin testing. We offer both the one step and two step testing.

Requirements:

• Must have an appointment.
• Must be established with a physician.

Cost: The cost is $15 per step. We accept cash or check payment only.

To make your appointment please call 330-424-0272 Ext 114.
