SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ACHDNC
provides advice and recommendations
to the Secretary of HHS (Secretary) on
the development of newborn screening
activities, technologies, policies,
guidelines, and programs for effectively
reducing morbidity and mortality in
newborns and children having, or at risk
for, heritable disorders. ACHDNC’s
recommendations regarding inclusion of
additional conditions for screening,
following adoption by the Secretary, are
evidence-informed preventive health
services provided for in the
comprehensive guidelines supported by
HRSA through the Recommended
Uniform Screening Panel (RUSP)
pursuant to section 2713 of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300gg–
13). Under this provision, nongrandfathered group health plans and
health insurance issuers offering group
or individual health insurance are
required to provide insurance coverage
without cost-sharing (a co-payment, coinsurance, or deductible) for preventive
services for plan years (i.e., policy years)
beginning on or after the date that is one
year from the Secretary’s adoption of the
condition for screening.
During the March 2019 meeting,
ACHDNC will hear from experts in the
fields of public health, medicine,
heritable disorders, rare disorders, and
newborn screening. Tentative agenda
topics include: (1) The condition
nomination and evidence review
process, (2) rare disease registries, and
(3) implementation of conditions on the
RUSP. Agenda items are subject to
change as priorities dictate and the final
meeting agenda will be available on
ACHDNC’s website: https://
www.hrsa.gov/advisory-committees/
heritable-disorders/.

members, as well as past meeting
summaries are also available on the
