Abstract: The purpose of this data collection is to follow-up with and assess newly-arrived persons in the United States who received overseas tuberculosis classifications in order to assist in the national effort to prevent new transmission of TB. The information collected by The EDN Tuberculosis Follow-Up Worksheet for Newly-Arrived Persons with Overseas Tuberculosis Classifications, also commonly known as the TB Follow-Up Worksheet, will provide outcomes for improving national TB prevention programs. The Division of Global Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ) staff, along with other federal partners will use this information to assess overseas panel physician performance, overseas prevention activities, and TB control program performance in the United States. Specifically, to improve overseas panel physician performance and TB prevention activities, CDC needs information on the U.S. domestic chest x-rays, chest x-ray comparison sputum smear and culture, and diagnosis results along with U.S. domestic reviews of overseas treatment. To monitor and assess U.S. domestic TB program performance, CDC needs to collect data on all elements of TB U.S. domestic follow-up evaluations, including chest x-rays, diagnosis, and U.S. treatment outcomes.
