National Syndromic Surveillance Program

The National Syndromic Surveillance Program (previously called BioSense) supports the sharing and use of high-quality syndromic surveillance data for situational awareness and to identify, monitor, investigate, and respond to hazardous events and disease outbreaks at local, regional and national levels. CDC, state and local public health departments, DoD, VA, and other collaborators participating in NSSP submit healthcare data to the BioSense platform through automated electronic health information exchange. The key change in this Revision includes a request for approval to receive onboarding data from state, local and territorial public health departments about healthcare facilities in their jurisdictions. Data are no longer collected to recruit state, local, and territorial public health departments since interested health departments approach the NSSP program to participate.

The latest form for National Syndromic Surveillance Program expires 2022-07-31 and can be found here.
