  • Title: CLIA program; simplifying CLIA regulations relating to accreditation, exemption of laboratories under a state licensure program, proficiency testing, and inspection--HCFA. Final rule.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1998 May 14; 63(93):26722-38. PubMed ID: 10179342.
    Abstract:
    This final rule responds to selected comments received on a final rule with a comment period implementing the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988, which was published in the Federal Register on February 28, 1992, in the areas of proficiency testing and inspections for clinical laboratories. In responding to these comments, we accommodate, when possible, the Administration's regulatory reform initiative by reducing duplicative material, emphasizing outcome-oriented results, and simplifying regulations. In that regard, we also are streamlining our regulations in the areas of State exemption, and granting deemed status to laboratories accredited by an approved accreditation organization.
