Fern Testing
Does anyone have physicians performing fern testing in a hospital setting? Does the hospital have a PPM waiver or are you testing under moderate or high complexity? Do you have the providers performing any QC or proficiency testing? I have some doctors that have hospital rights that would like to perform fern testing within the hospital. They have the PPM for their own private practice and I know that they can not perform testing at our facility under the private practice CLIA but I am not sure what the best route to take would be. I am wondering how other facilities have handled this situation. Any information that you would be willing to share would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,

Does anyone have their docs performing QC for Fern testing? Or
Does anyone have an IQCP for Fern testing that they might be willing to share?
Any information would be much appreciated.
