Matters to be Discussed: The agenda for the Subcommittee meeting includes preparation of a letter report to the Secretary of Health and Human Services on the first 100 dose reconstruction cases reviewed; and the review of the Board’s Case Selection Criteria for dose reconstruction reviews. The agenda is subject to change as priorities dictate. In the event an individual cannot participate, written comments may be submitted.
