The Significance of Genetic Awareness in Healthcare

Bio-Genetics Laboratory is a laboratory certified by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) and accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP), with a proven 20-year operational track record. CLIA-certified facilities adhere to established regulations for laboratory testing quality and the reporting of patient-specific results. CLIA standards are overseen by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Any testing performed in the U.S. that influences patient care must comply with CLIA standards.

CAP accreditation ensures the use of comprehensive, scientifically-endorsed laboratory standards that meet or exceed CLIA requirements. The accrediting agency evaluates the lab, confirming that test results are of the highest quality, assays are developed for accurate decision-making, and the lab remains in compliance with CLIA standards with active monitoring over time.
