Michigan SB0607 requires newborn hearing screening for congenital cytomegalovirus.
Michigan SB0607 amends the Michigan Public Health Code to mandate newborn hearing screening for congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV). Effective March 1, 2028, health professionals must administer tests for cCMV, along with other specified conditions. The bill exempts these tests from informed consent requirements and mandates reporting positive results to parents and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. It also requires the development of a public education program on cCMV, including its incidence, transmission, and prevention.
