Reportability Response Narrative Guidance
Introduction
Purpose
The following is informative guidance on generating the narrative text of a Reportability Response Communication (Reportability Response). Through the Reportability Response, public health seeks to support bidirectional communication with clinical care for reportable conditions. The Reportability Response is designed to have one Reportability Response created for each electronic Initial Case Report (eICR) and to be shared with the clinical care organization that created that eICR. The Reportability Response can also be shared with a Public Health Agency(ies) [PHA(s)] that has relevant reporting requirements (a Responsible Pubic Health Agency) that wants to use it to monitor the reporting process and know what has been conveyed to clinical care organizations and other Public Health Agencies. Sharing the Reportability Response with clinical care will serve several functions, including to:
- Communicate the reportability status, for the responsible PHA(s), of each condition included in the eICR
- Identify who (a PHA or an intermediary) prepared the Reportability Response
- Indicate whether the eICR has been sent to one or more PHA(s) Identify which PHA(s) has/have been sent the eICR
- Provide contact information for the responsible PHA(s)
- Provide suggested or required clinical follow-up activities from the responsible PHA(s), including any additional reporting needs or infection control activities
- Provide access to clinical support resources suggested by the responsible PHA(s) for identified reportable conditions
- Confirm eICR receipt and processing
A Reportability Response will also, when requested, be shared with the responsible PHAs (when they have not constructed it) for their internal use, so they understand what has been shared with clinical care, and to monitor/audit decision support algorithm effectiveness and implementation. When a condition is considered reportable to more than one PHA, the Reportability Response can be helpful in communicating reporting that has been done to other PHAs as well.
Determination of Reportability
Reportability indicates the quality or state of a possible case/event being reportable to one or more PHA. It does not, in itself, represent the clinical diagnosis of a possible condition nor the conclusion that a possible case/event fully meets a public health case definition. Reportability is based on information at a given point of time and, resultantly, reportability status can change when additional or different information becomes available. Decision support systems that provide a determination of reportability of a possible condition produce results that may fall into a number of types. One or more of these reportability determinations may be present in the Reportability Response based on the possible condition(s) in the eICR being assessed.
The values that can currently be used for the Determination of Reportability are described below.
A possible condition is:
- Reportable - The information provided meets reporting criteria for an associated PHA.
A possible condition:
- May be Reportable - The information provided may meet reporting criteria if additional information is provided. The Reportability Response will also be able to share the information needed to definitively determine reportability.
A possible condition is:
- Not Reportable - The information provided conclusively does not meet reporting criteria.
Some decision support systems may not be able to fully differentiate between possible conditions that are Not Reportable and those that May be Reportable if additional information is provided. In these circumstances there may only be a reportabilty determination of:
- No Reporting Rule Met - The information provided does not meet reporting criteria or may meet reporting criteria if additional information is provided.
The determination of No Reporting Rule Met may be provided for a possible condition or for all conditions in the eICR.
Audience
The audience for this document is developers and managers of public health information systems such as the Reportable Condition Knowledge Management System (RCKMS) and public health surveillance systems that receive and process eICRs and then generate and share Reportability Responses.
Narrative Construction Guidance
The following sections provide example templates and text for use in the generation of the Reportability Response narrative located in Reportability Response Communication.text. Most of the specifics of Reportabilty Response data and structure are found in the normative profiles of this implementation guide.
Normative guidance in the profiles includes data specification, order, and some aspects of structure and visualization.
The following sections include further details on how narrative text can be constructed to meet the goals of communicating with largely clinical audiences. There are example templates for the possible combinations of reportability determinations that need to be accommodated in the Reportablity Response and example visualizations.
Variables that represent coded data found elsewhere in the Reportabilty Response will be enclosed with angle brackets with a link to the relevant element, like this: <variable>
Reportability Response Subject
(for circumstances where any determination of reportability code is reportable or maybe reportable - it is recommended to communicate the Reportability Response to Provider/Reporter)
Public Health Reporting Communication: one or more conditions are reportable, or may be reportable, to public health.
(for circumstances where all determination of reportability codes are not reportable and/or no rule met - it is recommended to not communicate the Reportability Response to Provider / Reporter, but to store to document completion)
Public Health Reporting Communication: Submitted report had no identifiable reporting needs.
(for any circumstance where the eICR was manually initiated)
Public Health Reporting Communication: Manually initiated report was submitted to public heath
Reportability Response Summary
(Always present)
Your organization electronically submitted an initial case report to determine if reporting to public health is needed for a patient.
(if eICR was manually initiated)
The initial report was manually initiated by a provider. It was sent to: “<routing entity name>”, “<routing entity name>”.
(include and repeat for each Relevant Reportable Condition PlanDefinition contained in the RR Communication)
(Reportable)
“<Relevant reportable condition name>” is reportable to “<responsible agency name>”. The initial case report was sent to “<routing entity name>”. Additional information may be required for this report.
(May be reportable)
“<Relevant reportable condition name>” may be reportable to “<responsible agency name>”. The reportability status could not be completely determined because: “<determination of reportability reason>”.
(Not reportable)
“<Relevant reportable condition name>” was determined not to be reportable to “<responsible agency name>”. This may be because it is not on the list of reportable conditions for the relevant Public Health Agency or the information provided at the time of this report does not meet reporting criteria.
(No rule met)
A determination of reportability for a triggered condition could not be made for “<responsible agency name>”. This may be because it is not on the list of reportable conditions for the relevant Public Health Agency, or the information provided at the time of this report does not meet reporting criteria, or not all data needed to confirm reportabilty were available.
Note: While the identification of a Responsible Agency is an important part of information that the Reportability Response will provide to clinical care, some decision support systems may not be able to initially identify one. In that circumstance, sentences that identify “for” or “to” <responsible agency name> should be ended with a period before that text. (e.g., A determination of reportability for a triggered condition could not be made.)
(Above each list of external resources, include and repeat for each eICR <determination of reportability code>)
“<Relevant reportable condition name>” for “<responsible agency name>” Reporting is required within “<reporting timeframe>”. Reporting to this Public Health Agency is based on “<location relevance>”.
(repeat for each external resource template, based on External Resource Category order)
<External resource description> (<External resource link> - <External resource priority>)

A Single Condition is Not Reportable to a Single PHA
Subject:
Public Health Reporting Communication: Submitted report had no identifiable reporting needs.
Summary:
Your organization electronically submitted an initial case report to determine if reporting to public health is needed for a patient.
“<Relevant reportable condition name>” was determined not to be reportable to “<responsible agency name>”. This may be because it is not on the list of reportable conditions for the relevant Public Health Agency or the information provided at the time of this report does not meet reporting criteria.
Example text:
Your organization electronically submitted an initial case report to determine if reporting to public health is needed for a patient.
“Zika virus” was determined not to be reportable to “State Department of Health”. This may be because it is not on the list of reportable conditions for the relevant Public Health Agency or the information provided at the time of this report does not meet reporting criteria.
Other Combinations for Response in the Reportability Response
Similar to these examples, some additional responses may include:
- Single Condition is Reportable to Multiple PHAs
- Single Condition is Not Reportable to Multiple PHAs
- Multiple Conditions are Reportable to a Single PHA
- Multiple Conditions are Reportable to Multiple PHAs
- Multiple Conditions are Not Reportable to a Single PHA
- Multiple Conditions are Not Reportable to Multiple PHAs
- Combination of Conditions Reportable and Not Reportable to a Single or Multiple PHA(s)
eICR Not Processed
In the case where an eICR Composition was not processed (eICR Processing Status=eICR was not processed - error), the normative constraints in the Reportability Response Communication profile state that there must be narrative text populated from Communication[rr-communication].payload[sliceEICRInformation] that contains the reason the file was not processed. Given the potential reasons (see codes from the eICR Processing Status (eCR) Value Set (PHIN VADS) value set) for an eICR Composition not to be processed, the following example may be used in the the corresponding Reportability Response Communication.text:
An initial report for a possible reportable condition was received on “<date and time of eICR receipt>” with the file name “<filename of eICR>” but it was not processed. “<eICR Processing Status Reason>”
If additional information about the specific error is available (e.g., file validator output, server logs), it can be found in eICR Validation output.
