Today’s Webinar IQCP Topics • Update of the CMS (CLIA) new QC option • CMS, CAP, TJC and COLA Requirements • Example of developing an IQCP for the
PAMG-1 Assay Disclosures • Not a representative of CMS or any

Today’s Objectives Discuss methods to help you determine whether or not
you will need to create an IQCP for your testing systems Explain the updated IQCP regulations put forth by CLIA
and its accrediting agencies Illustrate the creation and documentation all three
components of the IQCP: a Risk Assessment, a Quality Control Plan and a Quality Assessment
Guide you through the process of customizing the IQCP to your lab and to your non-waived testing device(s)
Review the tools and templates available to you to create an IQCP

• PAMG-1 test is classified as CLIA moderately complex (i.e., non-waived)
• Regardless of accreditation all non-
waived testing requirements must be met (follow your accreditation agency)
• QC options will change Jan. 1, 2016
Should an IQCP for the PAMG-1 Test be considered?

Purpose of IQCPs …
Ensure quality throughout the testing Allow “customization” of QC Allow use of manufacturers’ built-in quality
assessments to meet the required daily QC requirements Avoid the default QC of 2 levels of external
QC/test/day of testing Can reduce daily QC to less than default, but never less
than what the test manufacturer specifies

CMS (CLIA) and Accrediting Agencies’
IQCPs
Make sure to follow the requirements appropriate for your test site

IQCP Reminder
• QC is less stringent than CLIA’s (2 external QC/day of testing)
• You want to use manufacturers’ built-in quality assessments to meet daily QC
Is it voluntary? Yes, UNLESS:
• Non-waived testing • All specialties except pathology and
cytology • Used in states that allow IQCPs
What testing is eligible?
• Risk assessment • Quality control plan • Quality assessment for ongoing
effectiveness
What is involved?

Quality Control Like the CLIA requirements, COLA laboratories must establish a QC program for all tests performed in the lab. COLA, like CLIA, now allows Individualized Quality Control Plans (IQCP) See QC 31 and associated criteria.

IQCP Goal: Quality Testing Processes for Quality Test Results. Sites need to…
Identify possible sources of error (risk) in the entire testing process
Determine whether or not current practices and protocols are eliminating these errors
Decide how to reduce all significant errors identified but not eliminated with current practices
Develop a QCP plan by identifying practices/protocols to address findings and have QCP approved by director
Assess these practices/protocols for on-going effectiveness

One Example: RM table to judge significance of leftover identified risks* For each leftover (residual) risk, determine the
impact of an incorrect, delayed or no result due to the occurrence of the risk Assess the probability of harm from risk Frequent to improbable
Assess the severity of harm Negligible to catastrophic
Significance depends on the combination of the probability of harm and severity

For those risks identified as significant: • Decide how to detect/eliminate the residual failure/error • Modify and/or add addıtıonal policies and practıces • Modify training and competency assessment activities to
accommodate changes
• Make sure to document the modifications/changes

CMS says the QCP…
CMS Survey & Certification Letter 13-54, August 16, 2013: http://www.cms.gov/Regulations-andGuidance/Legislation/CLIA/ Individualized_Quality_Control_Plan_IQCP.html
Must at least include the number, type, frequency of testing and criteria for acceptable result(s) of the quality control(s). Note: …labs are not permitted to establish QC procedures that are less stringent than those specified by the manufacturer…
If indicated by…the evaluation of the RA, the QCP may also include: • Electronic controls • Procedural controls • Training and competency assessment • Equipment maintenance, calibrations • Other specified quality control activities

Quality Control Plan (QCP)
Does the lab have a written QCP for each test system, as applicable?
Does the QCP specify: Number and type of
controls? Frequency of testing? Criteria for acceptable
results?
Does the QCP require the lab to perform QC as specified by manufacturer instructions? Remember, labs can always
do more, but never less
Is there documented evidence of lab director approval of the QCP before it was put into use?

Putting the IQCP together
Keep it “short” – 1 – 2 pages: (think executive summary)
• Include specifics - testing device/analytes, test site’s name and address, effective date, CLIA number, director, and any other relevant information
• Summarize the RA process - steps, staff, information collected, etc. • Summarize changes in practice(s) for all 3 phases of testing • Identify location of supporting documentation/data, SOPs, etc. • Specify in QCP - at least the CMS mandates for analytical QC • Include QA approach - monitors, frequency, follow-up, inclusion into
lab’s QA plan
Have and show director’s approval of the process and plan
Keep just like all other lab documents (2 years after QCP is discontinued)

Includes all the “right” stuff -- RA, QCP, QA, & signature, And “others” know where it is!
