Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Wisconsin Statute 253.12 was enacted in May 2000 to create the Wisconsin Birth Defects Registry (WBDR), replacing the Birth and Developmental Outcome Monitoring Program, a previous birth defects and developmental disabilities reporting system initiated in 1989. In the summer of 2004, the new registry began collecting demographic, diagnostic, and identifying information for children from birth to 2 years of age who are born with reportable birth defects and/or are receiving health care services for them in Wisconsin. This article describes the development of the registry and outlines expectations for reporting of birth defects. |
