The tracking and follow up for border babies is a major concern in the data management of EHDI programs. Obviously this is true in every state but is more of a concern for some states than others. As a means of assisting in the tracking and follow up of these babies who are born in an adjoining state as well as to help follow up for babies who move to another state just after birth, we have listed data managament contacts for individual U.S. states, territories and commonwealths below.
If your state data management contact should be changed, e-mail NCHAM or call us at 435.797.3584.
