I would be very careful when you say you need a CLIA certified tech to do gross (high complexity testing). You actually need someone who meets the CLIA requirements to perform High Complexity Testing. You can have a tech who is certified, but they may not meet the educational requirements. That person MUST have 60 semester hours, 24 of those in science, 6 hours must be Biology and 6 must be Chemistry and documented training in the area of high complexity testing. It has NOTHING to with certification, unfortunately.
