Florida Newborn Screening Program - Physician Resources
Beginning Spring of 2009, the Florida Newborn Screening Program released a new web application for requesting laboratory results, Florida Newborn Screening Results (FNSR). Physicians may request
results for older babies by using the Physician Request Form As of October 1, 2008, Children's Medical Services Newborn
Screening Program will no longer fill physician requests unless the attestation
box is checked. If you send a request that does not have the attestation
box checked, the request will be returned to you. Once you have checked
the attestation box and faxed back, your request for lab results will be
completed.

Far too often, newborn screening results cannot be forwarded to the newborn's physician because one has not yet been selected by the new mom. Some babies come early, so a primary care provider for the baby should be chosen a couple of months before the due date. We have ample copies available of a reminder poster To order posters, at no cost, please fax an order form The Florida Newborn Screening Program staff would greatly appreciate if your office would complete our satisfaction survey |
