Abstract: |
Robust EHDDI tracking and surveillance systems are critical for ensuring infants receive necessary services and for program evaluation and quality improvement. This presentation will outline recent changes to the Washington State EHDDI system that make it more efficient and functional. Key enhancements that will be addressed include:
• Integration with the Newborn Screening Program
• Fax automation capabilities
• Adaptive authentication to guarantee secure access to the system
• An improved online application for audiologists
• Direct linkage to Washington’s Part C program
This presentation will describe how these changes impacted our follow-up activities and improved the reporting and tracking of newborn hearing screening, diagnostic, and early intervention services. We also want to share our future goals for an even more dynamic system that interacts with Health Information Systems and Exchanges. |
