in newborns and children having, or at risk
for, heritable disorders. The SACHDNC’s
recommendations regarding additional
conditions/inherited disorders for screening
that have been adopted by the Secretary are
included in the Recommended Uniform

of the comprehensive guidelines supported
by the Health Resources and Services

plans are required to cover screenings
included in the comprehensive guidelines
without charging a co-payment, co-insurance,

years) beginning on or after the date that is
one year from the Secretary’s adoption of the
screening. The SACHDNC also provides
advice and recommendations concerning
grants and projects authorized under section
1109 of the Public Health Service Act (42
U.S.C. 300b–8).
Agenda: The meeting will include: (1)
Updates on newborn screening case
definitions and newborn screening quality
indicators; (2) updates from the Nomination
and Prioritization Workgroup and the
Condition Review Workgroup regarding the
final condition review matrix,
Adrenoleukodystrophy, and Pompe Disease;
(3) presentations on the National Institutes
for Health’s Ethical, Legal, and Social
Implications Research Program, HRSAfunded prenatal family history project, and
the Institute of Medicine meeting summary
on assessing the economics of genomic
medicine; (4) reports on the continued work
of the Advisory Committee’s subcommittees
on Laboratory Standards and Procedures,
Follow-up and Treatment, and Education and
Training; (5) workgroup reports on the
second screen study, and carrier screening;
and (6) CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality
Weekly Report on laboratory practices for
genetic testing and newborn screening.
Tentatively, the SACHDNC is expected to
review and/or vote on the following items,
none of which currently involve votes to add
conditions to the RUSP: (1)
Adrenoleukodystrophy—Nomination and
Prioritization Report; (2) Condition Review
Matrix; (3) Second Screen Study from CDC;
and (4) the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly
Report on Good Laboratory Practices for
Biochemical Genetic Testing and Newborn
Screening for Inherited Metabolic Disorder.
