Administrative Rules for Rule Set “Mandatory Reporting of Chronic Diseases”
MOAHR Rule Division No. 2022-24 HS
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services will hold a public hearing to receive public comments on a new rule
set, Mandatory Reporting of Chronic Diseases.
January 17, 2024-9:00 A.M.
333 South Grand Avenue
Rooms 1K/1L
Lansing, Michigan 48933
These new rules are intended to address reporting requirements for chronic conditions. Establishing this requirement is
necessary for MDHHS to leverage electronic health record (EHR) data that is already shared between Michigan health systems
and health information exchanges (HIEs). The ADT messages will populate the ‘Chronic Disease Registry Leveraging
Electronic Health Record Data’ (CHRONICLE) housed within the Michigan Disease Surveillance System (MDSS). With the
institution of reporting requirements for chronic conditions, CHRONICLE is expected to significantly improve chronic disease
surveillance capacity for MDHHS and our partners and will have other public health applications as the system is further
expanded or additional conditions are approved.
By authority conferred on the Director of the Department of Health and Human Services sections 2221, 2226, 2233, and 5111
of the public health code, 1978 PA 368, MCL 333.2221, 333.2226, 333.2233, 333.5111, and section 8 of the critical health
problems reporting act, 1978 PA 312, MCL 325.78 The rule set takes effect immediately after filing with the Secretary of
Register in the January 1, 2024 edition. Copies of the draft rules may also be obtained by mail or electronic transmission at the
