The ANAB medical testing accreditation program was designed to assure the quality of medical testing laboratories and improved patient care through assuring compliance with ISO 15189. The objective of 15189 is to promote the welfare of patients and satisfaction of laboratory users through confidence in the quality and competence of medical laboratories.

This internationally accepted standard was developed with the participation of the medical, scientific, and clinical community, and it contains requirements for diagnostic labs to demonstrate competence to deliver timely, accurate, and reliable results. It was also designed to increase the effectiveness of the management system, decreasing probability of invalid results, and reducing potential harm to patients, laboratory personnel, the public, and the environment.

Our goal through medical testing laboratory accreditation is to improve the quality of medical testing laboratories and the quality of the data they produce. ANAB accreditation managers and medical experts have practical experience in the field and are often viewed as peers to the laboratory. The ANAB medical testing accreditation program is well-established and should be your choice for accreditation for medical testing laboratories.
