September 2015—When the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 were implemented in the early 1990s, a number of significant changes to proficiency testing, or PT, were required. For the 83 tests or analytes (and microbiology subspecialties) defined as CLIA regulated, the law imposed requirements on both PT providers and laboratories.
September 2015—Whether transfusion recipients are better off receiving fresher red blood cells has probably been the most pressing and controversial question in blood banking in the past several years. So much so that enormous randomized, prospective trials involving patients in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Australia, and Africa have been comparing outcomes from RBC units of different duration in a variety of patient subpopulations.
September 2015—Two major specialties serve all of health care as the foundation for diagnosis. Now efforts to align pathology and radiology again appear to be picking up steam. As payment shifts to so-called value-based care and as medical record systems may challenge successful test interpretation, many experts seek a clear integration of these two specialties.
September 2015—With the CLIA Individualized Quality Control Plan process geared to unseat the familiar Equivalent Quality Control process on Jan. 1, there seems to be wide agreement that microbiology laboratories will have the biggest adjustment to make to comply with CLIA QC requirements, despite the IQCP being voluntary.
August 2015—After years of reading the latest news from the CMS with dread, pathologists and independent laboratories have some reason for revelry this summer as the agency’s proposed physician fee schedule offers an overall uptick in Medicare payment for 2016. Yet it is the final physician fee schedule, due in November, that will tell whether pathologists feel grateful toward the CMS when Thanksgiving rolls around.
August 2015—The first CAP accreditation checklist requirements specific to next-generation sequencing were published only three years ago. “In 2012, those 18 accreditation requirements were basically all new language that the College’s Next-Generation Sequencing Project Team developed and submitted for review,” says project team chair Karl Voelkerding, MD, of the University of Utah Department of Pathology and ARUP Laboratories.
August 2015—The problem of carbapenem resistance first made its way to Detroit’s Henry Ford Hospital in 2007, when a multidrug-resistant organism appeared in a sputum sample from the intensive care unit. Within weeks, several other cases emerged.
August 2015—It doesn’t come swathed in a ribbon on the showroom floor, but the 2015 edition of the CAP Laboratory Accreditation Program checklists is new, improved in style and substance, and ready to roll. More precise and consistent quality terminology, more consolidation of requirements into the All Common checklist, and increased clarity on how labs can demonstrate their level of quality are among the highlights of the 2015 edition.
August 2015—To gear up for the change from ICD-9, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has provided updates and training and has kept ICD-9 changes to a minimum in an effort to build a strong crosswalk to ICD-10. Last year, the U.S. was given one more year to prepare, but that will not be the case this year. In fewer than 75 days, on Oct. 1, the U.S. will convert to ICD-10 coding.
August 2015—Move it, monitor it, manage it: Hardware and middleware, modules, and interfaces dominate the developments from at least five manufacturers of systems in this year’s product guide to laboratory automation systems and workcells—Beckman Coulter, Siemens, Sarstedt, Inpeco, and Cerner. The guide also includes four systems from a company new to the guide—IDS in Kumamoto, Japan—and additions from Aim Labs, Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Roche, and Beckman Coulter.
