Existing law requires the State Department of Public Health to establish a list of reportable communicable and noncommunicable diseases and conditions and specify the timeliness requirements related to the reporting of each disease and condition.

This bill would require the department, when it receives a report of a case of coccidioidomycosis after the department's reporting deadline for a specified year, to include the case in its data collection for the next year and attribute it to the year of diagnosis in future data reporting. This bill would require the department to collect data on coccidioidomycosis cases by April 15 of each year, as specified. The bill would require the department, if it collects data on coccidioidomycosis cases and removes discrepant data from its internal dataset, to timely report sufficient information about its removal of the discrepant data to a local health officer and the local health officer may remove the discrepant data from the county's dataset. The bill would also require the department, if it publishes provisional data on coccidioidomycosis cases, to publish an explanation of data changes likely to occur and of discrepancies between data reported by a local health officer and data reported by the department. The bill would require the department to publish the date range of a dataset and the date on which the dataset was updated if the department publishes data on coccidioidomycosis cases.

This bill would prohibit a petition for an ex parte order for the purposes described above from being denied solely because the other party was not provided with notice. The bill would also authorize, if at the time of a hearing with respect to an order based on an ex parte temporary restraining order the court determines that, after diligent effort, the petitioner has been unable to accomplish personal service, and that there is reason to believe that the restrained party is evading service, the court to permit an alternative method of service designed to give reasonable notice of the action to the respondent, as specified.
