Abstract: |
The Michigan EHDI program first established a list of rescreen and diagnostic centers for statewide use in 2003. At that time, the list was derived from survey responses which focused primarily on the types of equipment (ABR, OAE) available in each setting. The Michigan EHDI advisory board recommended that this list be updated to include criteria beyond equipment. At last year’s conference, the initial steps of this process were discussed. During this presentation, the final guidelines will be shared along with responses from a public comment survey collected prior to the final draft being adopted. |
