Quality Improvement Initiative

The program standards and guides materials, which form the basis for instruction in Georgia’s technical colleges, are developed to support industry driven needs. Faculty and local program advisory committees review programs, each year, to ensure the latest technology and employment needs are addressed for the program.

Through the Instructional Faculty Consortium Committee (IFCC) process, programs are reviewed and, if needed, recommendations are made to update competencies found in the program. Given the accelerating changes in technology and the workplace, a major systematic updating of all standardized programs in the technical colleges, with business and industry involvements, is needed.

A joint IFCC Executive Board and State Technical Committee (STC) meeting was held in April 2006 to examine the Medical Laboratory Technology, Diploma and Degree, Associate, program. A working committee composed of instructors and state technical committee members met in May 2006 to discuss and respond to recommendations made by the IFCC Executive Board and STC members.

Currently, the Probe process is being initiated for program revisions recommended by the statewide faculty group, state technical committee and working group. The following sections are included in this Probe document:

a listing of the IFCC Executive Board a listing of the State Technical Committee members a list of the Working Committee members and recommendations made by the IFCC Executive Board and STC

The recommended changes/revisions made in this document apply to the Medical Laboratory Technology, Diploma and Degree program(s). The deleted items are reflected with a strikethrough while new material is boldfaced. Course number and course title changes are recommended to more accurately describe the course level and content of the affected courses and enhance transferability.

The appropriate sections from the program standards are included, showing recommended revisions, and a revised curriculum sequence illustrates the impact of revisions on scheduling.

MEDICAL LABORATORY TECHNOLOGY STC RECOMMENDATIONS, and IFCC RESPONSES

RECOMMENDATION #1:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends that allied health program standards reflect adherence to final rules for Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act of 1988 (CLIA ‘ 88) established in the Federal Register (Vol. 60, No. 78, April 24, 1995).

JUSTIFICATION/ENDORSEMENT #1:

The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses the recommendation. Under current federal regulations (CLIA ' 88), non-associate degree personnel can not perform moderate to high complexity testing such as the procedures urine microscopic analysis and WBC differential.

RECOMMENDATON #2: The MLT State Technical Committee recommends addition of MLT 118 and MLT 119 as elective to replace the 2 credit hour general elective.


The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses the recommendation.

MLT 118 and 119 are review courses (I and II) for laboratory licensure. Incorporation of these review courses into the MLT standards will allow students the opportunity to improve their preparation for certification using a formal process for review. Under current laboratory licensure regulations for the State of Georgia, Department of Human Resources, laboratory personnel are required to pass a certification examination within one year of employment in-field. (Rules & Regulations for Licensure of Clinical Laboratories Chap 290-5-29; Sept 5, 1990)

RECOMMENDATION #3:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends addition of MAT 196 as an option to MAT 191.


The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses the recommendation of MAT 196 as an option to MAT 191.

The stated competencies for MAT 196 include statistics, in addition to algebra making the MAT 196 course more relevant to the MLT program. MAT 191 is a pre-requisite course for MLT 107 (Clinical Chemistry). The course description and stated competencies of MLT 107 include quality control and instrumentation. The quality control competency is statistics that are applicable to the clinical laboratory testing and instrumentation.

RECOMMENDATION #4:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends that the Department of Technical and Adult Education eliminate the diploma level MLT programs from state standards.


The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses this recommendation.

The final regulations of the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act of 1988 (Federal Register [Vol. 60, No. 78, April 24, 1995]) require a minimum of an associate degree as the entry level to the clinical laboratory to perform moderate to high complexity testing. Since the majority of testing performed in the clinical laboratory is moderate to high complexity testing, employers are limiting employment of non-associate degree MLT's. In addition, certification examinations for MLTs were changed to reflect the new education requirements. Therefore,


Posted: 03/27/07

certification examinations approved by Laboratory Licensure division of the Department of Human Resources is severely limited.

RECOMMENDATION #5:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends that the program name be changed from Medical Laboratory Technology to Clinical Laboratory Technology.


The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses the name change to accurately reflect the current practice of clinical laboratory science. This is supported by program accreditation organizations, such as National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS).

RECOMMENDATON #6:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends amending the MLT standards admission criteria as follows:

Current admission criteria for the MLT program states "documentation of a health report of a physician" is a requirement for program admission.

Change to state "documentation of a health report of a physician is required prior to enrollment or participation in a clinical rotation".


The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses this recommendation to amend current program admission criteria to be in line with current law in that a health report cannot be used as an admission requirement, but can be used as a requirement to participate in a clinical rotation or internship. A health report by a physician is a requirement of NAACLS program accreditation standards for participation in clinical rotations, and reflects current industry practice.

The NAACLS Guide to Accreditation for Clinical Laboratory Technician/Medical Laboratory Technician Program Standards, Section IV: Students, standard #14 (Health & Safety) states

“There must be a procedure for determining that each applicant’s or student’s health will permit the individual to meet the written essential functions of the program.”

RECOMMENDATION #7:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends addition of standardized minimum (essential) technical performance skills to the MLT program admission standards for participation in clinical internships. Clinical requirements and essential technical (performance) skills are included.




Other Essential Behavioral Attitudes: Ability to engage in activities consistent with safe clinical laboratory practice without demonstrated behaviors of addiction to, abuse of, or dependence on alcohol or other drugs that may impair behavior

or judgment. The student must demonstrate responsibility and accountability for actions as a student in the MLT program and as a developing Clinical Laboratory professional.

Physical Demands – Medium work that requires frequent lifting, ability to lift up to 50 pounds and carrying objects weighing up to 25 pounds. The ability to push or pull equipment weighing up to 50 pounds is required. Occasional stooping, kneeling, reaching, frequent sitting, standing, and/or walking and dexterity are required. Expressing or exchanging ideas by spoken word is required. The ability to see and obtain impressions through the eyes of shape, size, distance, color, motions or other characteristics of objects is required with a visual acuity of near 20/20 vision, with clarity of vision of twenty inches or less, depth perception, four-way field vision, sharp eye focus, and ability to identify and distinguish color. The ability to hear and smell is essential. The ability to work under mental & physical stress regularly is required. The ability to think critically is essential.


27. Assist in lifting, transferring, and moving of patients, lab equipment or supplies according to safety standards.28. Perform specimen collection techniques and sterile & isolation techniques as appropriate.29. Answer telephone in professional manner to take/give information accurately & completely. 30. Perform, evaluate, interpret, record & report accurately laboratory test results, including quality control procedures.31. Perform all types of manual, automated and semi-automated laboratory procedures accurately using applicable

universal and safety precautions.32. Move throughout the clinical site in an efficient manner.33. Accurately perform applicable date entry and information retrieval procedures using computer information systems.34. Communicate verbally with tact and understanding, and nonverbally, including maintaining eye contact when dealing

with patients, families and co-workers.35. Perform CPR & maintain current certification.36. Demonstrate progressive independence without constant supervision.37. Demonstrate persistent appropriate personal grooming in class and clinical practice.38. Follow the policies and procedures of the facility used for clinical practice.39. Read, comprehend and apply complex technical material as it relates to clinical laboratory procedures and

equipment.14. Maintain a professional demeanor when interacting with patients, families, co-workers and other healthcare professionals.


Minimum or essential technical functions (performance skills) for the MLT program are a program accreditation requirement for those MLT programs accredited by NAACLS. The Minimum or essential technical performance skills for the MLT program reflect current industry standards and practices, as well as DOT occupation handbook.

The NAACLS Guide to Accreditation for Clinical Laboratory Technician/Medical Laboratory Technician Program Standards, Section IV: Students, standard #11 (Admissions) states:

“Specific academic standards and essential functions required for admission to the program must be clearly defined, published and provided to prospective students and made available to the public.”

The NAACLS Guide to Accreditation for Clinical Laboratory Technician/Medical Laboratory Technician Program Standards, Section IV: Students, standard #14 (Health & Safety) states:

“There must be a procedure for determining that each applicant’s or student’s health will permit the individual to meet the written essential functions of the program.”

DTAE RESPONSE TO RECOMMENDATION #7

DTAE does not endorse this recommendation. The standardized minimum (essential) technical performance skills and clinical requirements address potential clinical facility requirements and reasonable expectations for clinical performance. This information should be provided to the student as a part of the pre-admission information package and should not be an admissions requirement.


Posted: 03/27/07

RECOMMENDATION #8:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends addition of a criminal background check to MLT program admission standards for participation in clinical internships.


The MLT IFCC endorses this recommendation to amend current program admission standards for participation in clinical internships to comply with current industry requirements, as well as JCAHO standards.

Current JCAHO Standard HR.1.20 and EP 5 states “for staff, students and volunteers who work in the same capacity as staff who provide care, treatment, and services, criminal background checks are verified when required by law and regulation and organization policy”. In other words, if criminal background checks are required on employees, then JCAHO requires that background checks be performed on volunteers, as well as students.

DTAE RESPONSE TO RECOMMENDATION # 8

DTAE does not endorse this recommendation. The criminal background check is a clinical site requirement. The criminal background check should not be a function of the college or program and it be transacted between the clinical facility and the student. The role of the college should be to ensure that the student has undergone the background check only. College personnel should not receive or see the results of the background check.

RECOMMENDATION #9:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends amendment of competency areas for MLT 101 to include HIPPA requirements.


The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses the recommendation of inclusion of HIPAA requirement as a competency area to MLT 101. Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 is a federal statutory law regulating use & privacy of patient information (www.hhs.gov/policies/index.shtml).

The MLT IFCC Executive Board recommends that the current competency area “Professional Ethics and Regulatory Agencies” be amended to “Professional Ethics, Regulatory Agencies and Regulatory Laws”.

RECOMMENDATION #10:

The MLT State Technical Committee recommends that student computer usage in MLT courses better reflect current industry standards regarding data management. The committee recommends addition of “computer usage” to documentation competency area of each MLT course that does not have computer usage as a competency area.

JUSTIFICATION/ENSORSEMENT #10:

The MLT IFCC Executive Board endorses the recommendation because the current industry is highly automated and computerized. According to most recent health care information studies, 80% of the typical patient’s medical chart is derived from diagnostic date and reports (lab test data).

Example: Documentation Competency area for MLT 101 would become “Documentation & Computer usage”. The other MLT courses that would need this statement are MLT 103, 104, 105, 107, 108 and 109.

Example: Documentation/Quality Control competency area for MLT 106 would become “Documentation/Quality Control and Computer usage.” The other MLT courses that would need this statement are MLT 110, 111, 112, 113.
