Add Waivered Methodology

Waivered tests (methodologies) are much less strictly managed as of the date of this writing. Unfortunately waivered labs are so widely misused and so poorly maintained by offices that use waivered labs (Low Complexity Labs) that this area may be monitored similar to Medium Complexity and High Complexity Labs in the future.

On recipt of a new kit.

Record procedure in laboratory procedure manual

Record test kit name and lot number

• date received
• Expiration date
• cost per kit
• Number of effective tests per kit (number of tests less number needed to run controls).

In Medium Complexity or High Complexity Labs- record positive and negative controls in control log. The frequency of controls is according to the manufacturers recommendations. Usually this is when opening a new box of test kits.

The results are recorded in the result log.

If there are panic values associated with the kit then these panic values are recorded in the panic value log per the Panic Value Policy.
