LABORATORY QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
Maintaining the overall quality of a laboratory is an ongoing and demanding responsibility that all laboratories must uphold. By implementing a Laboratory Quality Management System, this task can be greatly simplified for both yourself and your staff. It is crucial to ensure that the quality of your lab's processes remains consistent in order to provide accurate results to patients and to comply with licensure regulations. This is where our services can be of assistance. Our Quality Management Services are designed to help laboratories meet licensure requirements from the initial CLIA application stage through the operation of the lab.
Our team assists clients in navigating the intricate federal and state regulatory environment when establishing a new laboratory or expanding the test menu of an existing laboratory. Our comprehensive strategy involves the recruitment of a competent Laboratory Director, establishing the test menu, registering with accredited agencies, disclosing ownership information, developing validation plans, and submitting the CMS 116 application. We provide consultation and strategic direction throughout the process to guarantee that our clients can promptly and in accordance with regulations commence testing with CLIA, COLA, and CAP accreditation.
CLIA APPLICATION & UPDATES
INSPECTION READINESS
Our consulting team has successfully assisted our clients in achieving flawless inspections without deficiencies. The services provided encompass CLIA, COLA, and CAP inspection preparation. Our team of experts will conduct an on-site mock inspection at your laboratory to prepare you for upcoming CLIA, COLA, JC, and CAP inspections. Subsequently, we will furnish you with a comprehensive report containing recommendations for enhancement and corrective action plans tailored for both initial inspection-ready laboratories and accreditation surveys. This simulation will also provide you and your staff with insight into what to anticipate during inspections. Upon completion of our mock inspection, your laboratory will be equipped to operate smoothly and efficiently.
Our process entails: 1 - Preparation for Initial Inspection, 2 - Preparation for Accreditation Inspection, and 3 - Post-Inspection Lab Corrective Action, which involves analyzing the survey summary, formulating improvement plans, and advising on the implementation of Plan of Required Improvement (PRI).

Quality is crucial for patient care and plays a vital role in value-based care, leading to improved reimbursements. A study by the American Society for Quality suggests that investing in quality can achieve a 4.8% reduction in costs. This positive impact illustrates the significant returns on investment that quality initiatives provide.
Organizations often find that quality-related costs account for 15-20% of their sales revenue, with some reaching up to 40% of total operations. In successful companies, costs associated with poor quality might be around 10-15% of operations. However, by implementing effective quality improvement initiatives, these costs can be significantly reduced, ultimately enhancing profits.
