What We Do
When a physician office lab becomes moderately complex, CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments) requires that a qualified Medical Director (with laboratory experience) and a qualified Technical Consultant monitor the lab to keep it compliant. Physician Office Consulting (POC) provides CLIA qualified Technical Consultants to navigate this ever changing complex environment. If a lab provides highly complex testing we can also provide a qualified Medical Director if needed. POC assists their clients with two different phases in coverage based on the lab’s complexity. There is the initial set up of a new lab, one fee covering the consultation and education of the clinic staff for approximately the first two months. The secondary phase covers the ongoing service of keeping the lab compliant and running efficiently, this includes a bi-monthly on-site visit. Additionally, our staff will assist the clinic in remaining compliant with CLIA and be present and participate with all scheduled surveys.

Our clinic has worked with Physician Office Consulting for close to a decade and I can unequivocally recommend them. Their consultants are always helpful and efficient when they review policies and documentation with our lab personnel. Aligning with POC allows us to go into a CLIA inspection fearless because they have covered and anticipated every area of the surveyor’s questions and needs.
Nicole Miller, Manager at St. Francis Medical Partners Clinic, Millington and Atoka, Tennessee
“Having two locations to manage labs we needed the expertise of Physician Office Consulting to provide full lab service to one of our sites. Their consultant came in to update our manuals and they routinely follow up in person and are always available by phone if we have a question. During the CLIA inspection the POC Consultant flawlessly answered all of the questions- it was the easiest inspection we have ever had. Working with POC has taken away any of the stress and worry of operating a lab.
Jamie Ellerbrook, FNP and owner of two locations of Pediatric Associates of West Tennessee, Dyersburg and Brownsville, Tennessee
As a small business owner we knew the importance of having a cost efficient partner to help us stay compliant in our clinic labs. The reputation of Physician Office Consulting made choosing them a simple decision and their availability and follow through takes all of the worry out of any inspection. We can recommend POC without hesitation to any clinic.
