Faculty Disclosure Information In the past 12 months, I have not had a significant financial interest or other relationship with the manufacturer(s) of the product(s) or provider(s) that will be discussed in my presentation. This presentation will not include discussion of pharmaceuticals or devices that have not been approved by the FDA or if you will be discussing unapproved or “off-label” uses of pharmaceuticals or devices.

Office of Information Technology NSTS is … An integrated Web-based system for the collection, management, and analysis of newborn, child health and case management information with secure access by a range of approved private and public health care providers in Georgia.

Office of Information Technology NSTS is … (con’t) Encompasses: –Children 1 st –Universal Newborn Hearing Screening and Intervention (UNHSI), –Genetics Services Program, –Georgia Birth Defects Reporting and Information System (GBDRIS) and –Georgia’s Childhood Lead Poisoning and Prevention Program –Expandable to include other health conditions

Office of Information Technology NSTS Vision Newborn Surveillance and Tracking System (NSTS) is envisioned as the information backbone for Children 1 st that will serve as the catalyst for ensuring that all children and families receive the appropriate screenings, referrals, and follow-up services to which they are entitled. The ultimate goal is to create a health profile for every child within the public health system with access to this profile for clinicians, interventionists, and public health officials.

Office of Information Technology NSTS Users and Roles Hospitals –98 birthing hospitals Newborn hearing screening Children 1 st risk factors Metabolic screening Public Health –State Level Epidemiologists and Program Managers Surveillance and program management –District Level Program Managers and County Health Department Staff 18 districts & 159 counties Identification, monitoring, follow up, referrals Primary Care Physicians –Pediatricians and Family Practitioners Identification, monitoring Audiologists Identification, intervention
