Summary Statement of Deficiencies D5775 COMPARISON OF TEST RESULTS CFR(s): 493.1281(a)(c) (a) If a laboratory performs the same test using different methodologies or instruments, or performs the same test at multiple testing sites, the laboratory must have a system that twice a year evaluates and defines the relationship between test results using the different methodologies, instruments, or testing sites. (c) The laboratory must document all test result comparison activities. This STANDARD is not met as evidenced by: Based on surveyor review of laboratory records and interview with the laboratory director, the laboratory had not evaluated and defined the relationship between test systems for hematology differential testing on a twice a year basis for 2022. Findings include: 1. Review of laboratory records showed evaluation of test systems between the Sysmex XS1000i automated differential and manual differential testing in June 2022. Further review showed no additional evaluation in 2022. 2. Interview with the laboratory director on June 19, 2023, at 2:30 PM confirmed the laboratory had not evaluated and defined the relationship between the test systems for hematology differential testing on a twice a year basis for 2022.
