AACC contacted the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and requested that the agency suspend a provision in Memorandum S&C 16-18-CLIA, which grants equivalency to nursing degrees for the purposes of qualifying nurses as high and moderate complexity healthcare personnel. The Association suggested that such changes should have been considered through the rulemaking process. AACC met with congressional staff in support of maintaining CLIA'88 oversight of laboratory developed tests.
