DATES: The exemption granted by this notice is effective from April 1, 2024 to April 1, 2028. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mary Hasan, (410) 786–6480. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Background and Legislative Authority Section 353 of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA), as amended by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) (Pub. L. 100–578), which was enacted on PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 October 31, 1988, generally provides that no laboratory may perform tests on human specimens for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of any disease or impairment of, or assessment of the health of, human beings unless it has a certificate to perform that category of tests issued by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Under section 1861(s)(17)(A) of the Social Security Act (the Act), the Medicare program will only pay for laboratory services if the laboratory has an appropriate CLIA certificate for the testing they conduct. Under section 1902(a)(9)(C) of the Act, State Medicaid plans will generally only pay for laboratory services furnished by CLIA-certified laboratories. Thus, although subject to specified exemptions and exceptions, laboratories generally must have a current and valid CLIA certificate to test human specimens for the purposes noted above to be eligible for payment for those tests by the Medicare or Medicaid programs. Regulations implementing section 353 of the PHSA are contained in 42 CFR part 493. Section 353(p)(2) of the PHSA provides for the exemption of laboratories from CLIA requirements in States that enact legal requirements that are equal to or more stringent than CLIA’s statutory and regulatory requirements. Section 353(p)(2) of the PHSA is implemented in subpart E of our regulations at 42 CFR part 493. Sections 493.551(a) and 493.553 provide that CMS may exempt from CLIA requirements, for a period not to exceed 6 years, all State-licensed or Stateapproved laboratories in a State if the State licensure program meets the specified conditions. Section 493.559(a) provides that CMS will publish a notice in the Federal Register when CMS grants an exemption to an approved State licensure program. Section 493.559(b) provides that the notice will include the following: • The name of the State licensure program. • A description of how the laboratory requirements of the State are equal to or more stringent than those of part 493. • The basis for granting the exemption. • The term of approval, not to exceed 6 years. A. State of Washington’s Application for CLIA Exemption of Its Laboratories The State of Washington has applied for exemption of its laboratories from CLIA program requirements. The State of Washington submitted all the applicable information and attestations required by §§ 493.551(a), 493.553, and E:\FR\FM\01APN1.SGM 01APN1
