WHAT
IS DELAYED ACCREDITATION?
After
the review of a laboratory's accreditation application, the
Board of Directors renders an accreditation decision. One of
four decisions will be made: granted, delayed,
site-visit, or denied. A delayed decision means
that there are significant issues, deficiencies or lack of adherence
to the ICAMRL Standards that must be addressed by the
laboratory before it can be granted ICAMRL accreditation.
STEPS YOU CAN TAKE TO AVOID DELAY
There
are several steps that laboratories can take to increase the likelihood
that accreditation is attained without any delay.
-
Verify that your laboratory is adhering to the current edition
of the ICAMRL Standards. Dates of revision are listed
in the footer of every page. Verify that the date on your
materials corresponds to those on the web, or contact our
office to make sure you are using the correct edition.
-
Be certain that all case studies document your laboratory's
adherence to The Standards.
