Disease, Disability, and Injury Prevention and Control Special Emphasis Panel (SEP): Initial Review, 11577 [2017-03647]

Download as PDF 11577 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 36 / Friday, February 24, 2017 / Notices in early intervention services before six months of age for those identified with hearing loss. Federal support for identifying children with hearing loss began with the Children’s Health Act of 2000, which authorized federal programs to support EHDI activities at the state level. Since then, funds have been distributed to states via cooperative agreements from the CDC and grants from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). States are using these federal monies to enhance EHDI programs and develop corresponding tracking and surveillance systems. These systems are intended to help EHDI programs ensure infants and children are receiving recommended hearing screening, follow-up, and intervention services. The mission of the CDC EHDI team is for every state and U.S. territory to have a complete EHDI tracking and surveillance system that will help ensure infants and children with hearing loss achieve communication and social skills commensurate with their cognitive abilities. As part of this mission the CDC EHDI team, in collaboration with representatives of state and U.S. territorial EHDI programs, developed seven National EHDI Goals that reflect the ‘‘1–3–6 plan’’ and address integration with the medical home (coordinated care by a medical provider) and development of tracking and surveillance systems to minimize loss to follow-up and loss to documentation. Many of the defined performance indicators for these goals involve obtaining data related to the number of children screened for hearing loss, referred for and receiving followup testing (e.g., diagnostic audiologic evaluation) and enrolled in early intervention services. The purpose of the revised survey is to obtain annual state data on the performance indicators in a consistent manner, which is needed to assess progress towards meeting the National EHDI goals. In addition, the availability of these data will better enable the CDC EHDI team to provide technical assistance to states and respond to questions by the general public, policy makers, and Healthy People 2020 officials.
