Public Health Laboratory Accreditation

Public health laboratory accreditation is the formal recognition of a laboratory's technical competence in performing diagnostic tests on samples related to public health issues such as infectious diseases, environmental health, and food safety. Accreditation is granted by an independent, third-party accreditation body, after the laboratory has demonstrated that it meets the requirements of an internationally recognized standard such as ISO 17025/15189 or the CDC's Laboratory Response Network (LRN) program.

The accreditation process involves a comprehensive assessment of the laboratory's technical competence, quality management system, and adherence to relevant standards. Accreditation to a recognized standard such as ISO 17025/15189 or the CDC's LRN program provides assurance to public health agencies, healthcare providers, and regulatory bodies that the laboratory's test results are accurate, reliable, and consistent.
