I am a physician who performs screening testing (e.g., urine dipsticks) on my patients to guide patient management only. Do I need CPSA accreditation?

Posted June 4, 2020

Physicians and other primary care providers who report point-of-care-testing (POCT) into Netcare and Connect Care should reach out to CPSA’s diagnostic laboratory medicine accreditation team at diagnostic.laboratory@cpsa.ab.ca for further guidance.
