A. To request designation as an approved Yellow Fever Center call or write to the Office of Public Health, Epidemiology Section, P.O. Box 60630, New Orleans, LA 70160 (504-568-5005) and request an application form. After receipt of a completed application form, OPH personnel will conduct an on-site inspection of the clinic facilities utilizing an instrument developed by the Office of Public Health for this purpose. A report will then be forwarded along with the completed application to the state health officer for approval/disapproval. If approved, the designated center, the Division of Quarantine, Centers for Disease Control, and the vaccine manufacturer shall be notified in writing. The uniform stamp is then issued using the supervising physician's state medical license number for identification. Any facility whose request for approval is denied may appeal the denial after conditions which resulted in a denial of approval have been verifiably modified to bring the center into conformity with established regulations. The facility has 30 days after receipt of the denial in which to appeal in writing to the state health officer, Office of Public Health, P.O. Box 60630, New Orleans, LA 70160.
