ADDING
A MULTIPLE SITE OR A MOBILE SITE
Laboratories
wanting to add a multiple site and/or mobile service to an application
that has already been granted accreditation must complete the
multiple site / mobile service supplement and provide an updated
equipment table. If any physicians and/or technologists have
been hired since accreditation was granted, it will be necessary
to contact the ICANL office regarding the submission of staff
forms for these staff members. If the added multiple site or
mobile service is accepted into the laboratory's accreditation,
accreditation for the added multiple site or mobile service
will expire when the laboratory's original accreditation expires.
