Reducing Loss to Follow-up after Failure to Pass Newborn Hearing Screening
This announcement solicits proposals for reducing the loss to follow-up of infants who have not passed a physiologic newborn hearing screening examination prior to discharge from the newborn nursery by utilizing specifically targeted and measurable interventions.
The purpose of this funding opportunity is to further focus efforts to improve the loss to documentation/loss to follow-up by utilizing specific interventions to achieve measurable improvement in the numbers of infants who receive appropriate and timely follow-up.
Those states that have not participated in a Learning Collaborative, to date, will be required to participate in the Learning Collaboratives during the 2012-2014 project period.
This will entail travel to up to three sites by a team of 3-5 individuals.
