• Description:
  After a three-year experiment in consolidating services, the Florida Department of Health has again separated programs for the prevention and control of HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and tuberculosis. The authors report that while there were some clear advantages to consolidating services, especially programs dealing with HIV and other STDs, the individual programs suffered in some important ways. The authors describe Florida's effort to preserve the positive programmatic and administrative aspects of the consolidated approach and to apply the lessons learned.
