DSHS estimates that the agency would distribute 275,000 pamphlets each year to hospitals, birthing centers and midwives. The estimated production and printing costs would be $27,500 per year ($.10 per pamphlet). The estimated mailing cost would be $500 per year.
DSHS assumes that the agency would cease printing and distributing the existing newborn screening brochure at a savings of $10,352 in General Revenue per year. The estimated cost for distributing the pamphlets to hospitals would total $19,880 in General Revenue-Dedicated funds per year. The estimated cost for distributing the pamphlets to birthing centers and midwives would total $8,120 in General Revenue per year. An estimated net savings of $4,464 in General Revenue-related funds would be realized for the 2006-07 biennium.
