OraQuick In-Home Test Kit
Hello,
I am not sure where to ask or where to look but do you have any of your Clinics run In-Home tests? Does the tests have to be Waived? The Pediatric Clinic at our organization would like to run an in-home HIV test. I told them I would have to research this as I have not had a clinic ask this before.
Any help is appreciated!

I looked through some posts and people were talking about creating fake patients and letting them run it that way using QC, but is that truly observ...
