Summary Statement of Deficiencies D3031 RETENTION REQUIREMENTS CFR(s): 493.1105(a)(3) Analytic systems records. Retain quality control and patient test records (including instrument printouts, if applicable) and records documenting all analytic systems activities specified in 493.1252 through 493.1289 for at least 2 years. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Review of the Sysmex XS1000i calibration records for 2017 and 2018 and interview with testing personnel #1 (laboratory personnel report CMS-209), the laboratory failed to retain the calibration assay sheets for the required two year period. Findings were: 1. Sysmex XS1000i calibration records for February 20, 2017. 2. Sysmex XS1000i calibration records for February 7, 2018. 3. Assay sheets were not available was verified during interview with testing personnel #1 at 1:30 PM on June 20th, 2018. D5217 EVALUATION OF PROFICIENCY TESTING PERFORMANCE CFR(s): 493.1236(c)(1) At least twice annually, the laboratory must verify the accuracy of any test or procedure it performs that is not included in subpart I of this part. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on review of American Association of Bioanalysts (AAB) proficiency tests (PT) and interview with testing personnel #1 (refer to laboratory personnel report CMS-209) at 09:00 am on June 20, 2018, the laboratory failed to have two passing scores during 2017 to verify the accuracy of the urine sediment test. Findings were:. 1. Statement of Deficiencies (X1) Provider/Supplier/CLIA Identification Number (X3) Date Survey Completed Name of Provider or Supplier Street Address, City, State -- 1 of 4 -- Review of AAB PT Urinalysis for 2017: 1st Quarter Urine Sediment had a score of 50% 3rd Quarter Urine Sediment had a score of 50% 2. Testing personnel confirmed that the laboratory didn't perform any other accuracy for urine sediment. D5221 EVALUATION OF PROFICIENCY TESTING PERFORMANCE CFR(s): 493.1236(d) All proficiency testing evaluation and verification activities must be documented. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on review of American Association of Bioanalysts (AAB) proficiency testing (PT) records for 2017 and confirmed by laboratory testing personnel #1 (refer to the Laboratory Personnel Report CMS-209) at 08:30 am on June 20, 2018, the laboratory failed to ensure that evaluation of an unacceptable proficiency testing event was documented. The Findings include: 1. AAB 2017 1st Event Urinalysis, Urine Sediment - Image 1 & Image 2 - score 50% Coagulation, specimen 2 - score 36.2 - grading range (41.4 to 56.0) 2.
