Individualized Quality Control Plan
The Individualized Quality Control Plan (IQCP) is a quality management system under the US Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) federal regulatory standards. It is designed to enable regulated medical laboratories to manage the frequency of their quality control.[1][2]
Beginning Jan 1, 2016, US laboratories under CLIA performing non-wived testing were required to either perform two levels of controls daily or implement an IQCP.[3] An IQCP may be less stringent than CLIA, but not less stringent than the manufacturers recommendation.[4]
