The facility must report incidences of communicable
diseases as required by Federal, State, and local regulations.
Interpretive Guidance § 494.30(c)
The reporting of incidences of communicable diseases should be documented and become a part
of the QAPI record. Clusters of adverse events should be promptly reported to the appropriate
State or local public health authority. The QAPI process does not preclude the need to report
serious adverse events to public health authorities in a timely manner.

The link goes to the issuing authority’s own document — the one we read to produce this record. Where a source publishes whole titles rather than sections, your browser may need a moment to jump to the provision.
Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
