KHIE is designated to facilitate the automation of public health reporting for the state of Kentucky. Direct Data Entry (DDE) is the quasi-modernization of the manual entry of lab results for certain communicable diseases and their associated case reports. Participating healthcare organizations can utilize KHIE's online web forms to manually enter these, replacing the traditional paper-based methods and minimizing administrative reporting burdens.

Tips for Determining 'Need to Report'
1. Did my facility result the lab? If yes, the resulting facility must report the lab result to the state.
2. Did my facility collect the specimen? If yes, your facility is responsible for submitting the case report.
3. Is this a reportable condition? Refer to the regulation: 902 KAR 2:020 and to the Amended Table of Reportable Diseases and Conditions in Kentucky
