This law sets what a facility's exposure notice must include. It also spells out how confirmation works when a notice is mailed.
(a) Contents of notification to officer
When a medical facility sends a notification required by section 300ff–132 or section 300ff–133(d)(2), it must include: (1) the name of the infectious disease involved, and (2) the date the victim was brought to the facility.
(b) Manner of notification
If the notification is mailed or sent some other indirect way: (1) the facility must tell the designated officer, at the time it sends the notice, that it has been sent; and (2) the officer must, within 10 days of getting that message, tell the facility whether the notice actually arrived.
In making a notification required under section 300ff–132 of this title or section 300ff–133(d)(2) of this title, a medical facility shall provide—
the name of the infectious disease involved; and
the date on which the victim of the emergency involved was transported by emergency response employees to the medical facility involved.
If a notification under section 300ff–132 of this title or section 300ff–133(d)(2) of this title is mailed or otherwise indirectly made—
the medical facility sending the notification shall, upon sending the notification, inform the designated officer to whom the notification is sent of the fact that the notification has been sent; and
such designated officer shall, not later than 10 days after being informed by the medical facility that the notification has been sent, inform such medical facility whether the designated officer has received the notification.
