In many regions the COVID-19 pandemic interrupted the delivery of health care services in 2020, including newborn hearing screening and follow-up diagnostic and intervention services. As a result, infants born in 2020 and needing hearing screening and/or follow-up services may have experienced delays or had difficulties obtaining these services.

^† Passed initial / No outpatient refers to infants who passed the initial screening and, did not receive an outpatient screening, missed an outpatient screening or refused an outpatient screening.

^§ No initial / Passed outpatient refers to infants who did not receive an initial screening, missed an initial screening, or refused an initial screening, and passed the outpatient screening.
