Notifiable Diseases

A current list of the conditions and diseases that are required to be reported can be found on the Texas Department of State Health Services website. Both confirmed and suspected cases should be reported, as well as any outbreaks or unusual group expressions of disease. When reporting, please include the patient's name, age, sex, race/ethnicity, DOB, address, telephone number, disease, date of onset, method of diagnosis, and name and contact information of the physician.

Timely reporting helps us to monitor county health trends, identify potential disease outbreaks, prevent secondary transmission, and evaluate the effectiveness of control measures.

To report immediately notifiable diseases during non-business hours call 512-216-0162. If no answer, leave a message and your call will be returned within 24 hours.
