Georgia ASPR Calendar

Jan 2016 ASPR Calendar

Good Morning and Happy New Year,

Please distribute the updated Georgia Healthcare Community Preparedness Program, Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) Training calendar to your distribution list.

You will also see the attached flyer for “MEDICAL PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE TO BOMBING INCIDENTS” being offered in Athens January 14 and 15, 2016. Specific registration instructions are on the flyer.

Also you will notice an additional HSEEP and Active Threat in Healthcare class being offered in Region L that has been added to the calendar.

Attached you will find the HCPP ASPR Training Calendar January 1, 2016 for the next grant period that runs through June 30 2016. In order to continue to provide 83 free training opportunities to the State of Georgia, the following reductions will stay in effect for those who travel over 50 miles one way from the residence to the training location:

Mileage reimbursement will continued to be provided at the rate of $0.23 per mile and per diem will still no longer be provided.  The state will, however, continue to provide reimbursement for hotel stays at the maximum rate of $139.00 (plus tax) per night for classes that require overnight lodging due to travel distance.

A few reminders about reimbursements:

1.           Reimbursement forms issued in the class should be used for only that assigned class.

2.           Forms should be mailed to the address on the instructions and not sent in electronically.

3.           Mapquest directions must be attached with a starting and ending address. Students cannot pencil in the mileage. It needs to be what is shown when directions are retrieved. The Mapquest should show the actual route instead of just the starting and ending points. Only the driver is allowed to claim parking fees.

4.           Hotel receipts must be in the name of the person who attended the training/class/meeting and show a $0 balance. Do not use 3rd parties reservation sites like Travelocity, Hotwire, Expedia.

5.           Meals are not reimbursable.

6.           We cannot reimburse a company for an individual’s attendance.

7.           If a person is not requesting mileage or hotel reimbursement, they should indicate who they rode with or shared a room with.

8.           All reimbursement claims must be postmarked within 30 days of the class that are specific to the class that was attended. Page 1 and page 2 must be submitted.

The calendar, as well as course descriptions and reimbursement guidelines, are located in the tabs on the bottom of the excel spreadsheet.

For the class that you are interested in, place your cursor on the desired course and left click, that will bring up an web page so that more information can be requested from the point of contact.
