Required section · Section 6 of 6

Appointment decision

For an actual appointment, use the candidate record: determine complexity and role, open the current primary pathway, verify credentials/transcripts and experience, apply state and accreditor overlays, then assess appointment date or continuous service. If an overlay conflicts with or bars the pathway, do not appoint under it; use an allowed route or escalate.

Knowledge check 1

A waived glucose meter is run using a shorter incubation time than the manufacturer's current instructions specify, because staff are busy. How should this be treated under CLIA?

Choose one option.

Still waived, since the analyte and instrument are on the waived test list

No longer performed as waived; may be treated as high complexity for that use

No regulatory effect, since waived tests have no personnel or procedure requirements

Acceptable only if the laboratory director personally signs off on the shortcut
