FDA’s CLIA waiver process is creating problems for patients, health-care providers, and manufacturers by limiting access to important point-of-care diagnostic tests.  In this session we explore the problems with the process from legal, scientific, and public health perspectives, and propose rational reforms that would improve access to important diagnostics.
