We received a report indicating that an infant has screened positive for a disease. What is the submitting health care providers responsibility?
It should clearly indicate (in red) on the NBS report that ONSP physicians have referred the baby with the screen positive result to physicians at a specified regional treatment centre, who are responsible for further diagnostic evaluation of the infant, for initiation of treatment if indicated, and for reporting the outcome of the diagnostic evaluation to the referring physician at the ONSP. In general, no further follow-up on your part is required. If you have any concerns, or if the follow-up plans noted are unclear, please contact the ONSP office at 613-738-3222 option 0.
