Title: Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) Personnel, Histocompatibility, Alternative Sanctions for Certificate of Waiver Laboratories, and Fees (CMS-3326) 
Abstract:

This proposed rule would update histocompatibility and personnel regulations under CLIA to address obsolete regulations and update regulations to incorporate changes in technology. This rule would also make a change to regulations related to the imposition of alternative sanction for Certificate of Waiver (CoW) laboratories in order to more closely align the regulations with the CLIA statute.  Additionally, this rule would update fees for determination of program compliance and additional fees for laboratories established under CLIA regulations as well as the collection of other fees we are authorized to collect, such as fees for revised certificates, post survey follow-up visits, complaint investigations, and activities related to imposition of sanctions.
