[Histonet] To Joe Nocito...CLIA Regs

[DMBCMP <@t> aol.com]

Hello, Joe:
My Lab manager is very interested in your information about 'person's other 
than Pathologists doing gross descriptions".  Is there a specific CLIA reg you 
can quote for us or someplace where we can get specifics on the "prior to 
1995" training?  Do you know if state regs would overide the CLIA reg? This is 
very important to our lab.  I am glad I saw it discussed here on Histonet.  Your 
help will be very much appreciated.  Thank you.
