NOTICES

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH

Local Community-Based Organizations; HIV/AIDS Test Results

[27 Pa.B. 4506]

   Section 5(h) of the Confidentiality of HIV Related Information Act (35 P. S. § 7605(h)), requires the Department of Health (Department) to prepare a list of local community based organizations to be used by individuals having an HIV/AIDS test as part of physical examinations for insurance purposes, if they choose to designate an entity to receive notice of a positive test result other than the Department, a local health department or their physician. The local community-based organization then notifies the individual of the test results. See 35 P. S. § 7605(h)(3). It is the Department's intention to update its current list, to remove those organizations which no longer wish to perform this service. Therefore, the Department is seeking local community-based organizations with expertise in HIV prevention counseling and results counseling and who are interested in performing this public health service. Interested parties should contact Susan Harding, Department of Health, Division of HIV/AIDS, Counseling, Testing, Referral and Partner Notification Section, P. O. Box 90, Room 912 Health and Welfare Building, Harrisburg, PA 17108, (717) 783-0574, (717) 783-6514 (TT). Persons with a disability may contact the Department in an alternative format or may request the notice in an alternative format (for example, large print, audiotape, braille) at the above address or telephone numbers, including (717) 783-6514 (TT).
