CLIA: Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regulates all laboratory testing (except research) performed on humans in the U. S. through the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA). The objective of the CLIA program is to establish quality standards for all laboratory testing to ensure the accuracy, reliability and timeliness of patient test results regardless of where the test was performed.
