What is the procedure for adding/ deleting an analyte from my laboratorys existing permit?
If you need to add or delete an analyte from your protocol, you will need to complete the “Notification to Add/Remove Analytes” form (PDF — 73K ) located at the CLEP website or by calling CLEP at 518-485-5378. Proficiency testing and an on-site survey are no longer required prior to the addition of an analyte to an existing permit category. If the analyte is subject to New York State proficiency testing, the laboratory will be enrolled in the next regularly scheduled event. In most case, assay method validation for the new analyte will be reviewed during the next routine survey; however, validation data and/or standard operating procedure manual may be requested for reviewing by the Department of Health.
