[Histonet] CLIA

[Hale, Meredith]

Has anyone out there been told by CLIA you must run a negative control along with a positive control for HP special stains , not IHC ?  I know we do this for AFB but never have for an HP special stain .

Also the new IQCP CLIA is rolling out  it states that if your lab doesn't enroll in the voluntary IQCP that you must perform tow external controls on each test system for each day . Is this what they may be referring to ? Thanks in advance .
