Said: For our waived instruments that go to our satellites we have them sent to POCT before they go out and we only do QC usually. If there is a linearity kit available maybe you could use that instead of patients.

New Instrument set up

What format do you follow to bring in new instruments (waived) to your physician offices? When I was in the hospital setting I was able to run Quality Control for
10 days and 10 specimens. I don't have access to specimens so I am currently running the Quality Control for 10 days. I have Clinitek Status Plus and DCA Vantage
A1C instruments. We are not TJC inspected, only CLIA. Any suggestions on best lab practices when there are no specimens for correlations?

Said: We report as 'fungal elements present' or 'fungal elements absent' to cover a range.
