Disease Reporting
Accurate and timely reporting of viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), HIV, and AIDS cases are necessary for successful disease prevention and control. Reporting allows programs to visualize trends, identify potential outbreaks, initiate early interventions, and assist healthcare providers in the medical management of partners who may be infected.
What to Report
Both laboratories and health care providers are mandated to report the following diseases within three working days of confirmation (Hawai‘i Administrative Rules, Title 11, Chapter 156 & Hawai’i Revised Statutes Chapter 325, Section 2)
- Hepatitis A
- Hepatitis B
- Hepatitis C
- HIV
- AIDS
- Chlamydia trachomatis
- Neiserria gonorrheae
- Treponema pallidum (syphilis)
- Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
- Haemophilus ducreyi (chancroid)
Confidentiality of case records is protected by state law in Chapter 325, section 101. The department may conduct investigation when requested by an authorized representative of the Director (Statute 321–29).
