CLIA

Find Out How You can Easily Stay in Compliance with all Regulations in CLIA

CLIA or the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (42 CFR Part 493) are those regulations that were established in 1988 for the regulation and quality assurance of human specimens within clinical laboratory environments.

Managing your processes while staying compliant with CLIA and other regulatory requirements can be overwhelming... without an electronic system that streamlines your processes to ensure compliance, while also saving you time and money.

The requirements of CLIA can be difficult for clinical laboratories to meet and maintain. After all, CLIA requirements regulate aspects of clinical laboratory documentation, responsibilities of the laboratory director, complaint management, CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Actions) and laboratory monitoring procedures. Clinical laboratories can rest assured however that there are solutions that can organize, streamline and automate the many processes required to be in compliance with CLIA.
