Abstract
As a pediatrician in a private group practice, published reports of new or different office laboratory screening techniques pose some problems for us that may not be readily apparent to hospital-or medical center-based physicians. I would like to use the recent, and I think excellent article by Hoberman et al,1 on a enhanced urinalysis technique as an example to point out these difficulties. I feel certain that all pediatricians in private practice are now aware of the regulation of office laboratories by Federal law under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA) and the work-place requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
