the Coal Workers’ X-Ray Surveillance Program, my performance will be conducted in the manner specified by HHS

made in connection with this program will be treated in a secure manner and will not be disclosed, unless otherwise compelled by law. I further understand that: 1) My B Reader certification requires an active license to practice

medicine in the United States and I must notify the NIOSH B Reader Program within 60 days if my medical license is

revoked, suspended, voluntarily relinquished or surrendered, or converted to inactive status*; 2) NIOSH does not

regulate or monitor my classification of chest images performed for non-NIOSH purposes; 3) If NIOSH becomes

aware of violations, or allegations of violations, of the B Reader Code of Ethics, it may, at its discretion, notify

appropriate authorities, including the applicable State Board(s) of Medicine.
