Healing arts: clinical laboratories.
Summary
Existing law provides for the licensure, registration, and regulation of clinical laboratories and various clinical laboratory personnel by the State Department of Public Health, with specified exceptions. A violation of those provisions is a crime. Existing law authorizes a person who is licensed under those provisions to perform certain laboratory tests. This bill, until January 1, 2019, would authorize a person with specified qualifications to perform a total protein refractometer test using an automatic, button-operated refractometer with a digital readout in a licensed plasma collection facility in this state. Because a violation of those provisions would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
