CAP Accreditation is awarded to Clinical Laboratories Meeting the Highest Standards in Quality Laboratory Practices
MedGenome announced that its Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology based clinical laboratory in Bangalore has been awarded accreditation from the College of American Pathologists (CAP) based on the results of an on-site inspection. The CAP Laboratory Accreditation Programme is a globally recognised programme that utilises teams of practicing laboratory professionals as inspectors and is designed to go well beyond regulatory compliance.
“Being awarded the accreditation by CAP is an extremely proud moment for us. It further validates our commitment to provide the highest standards in quality laboratory services” said Dr VL Ramprasad, COO, MedGenome. “Having launched India’s first validated Liquid biopsy and the carrier screening tests, we are trying to find answers to some of the most complex diseases. We strive to provide the most accurate results based on thorough and rigorous processes to clinicians across India, so that they can produce the best outcomes for patients.”
Reportedly, with this accreditation, MedGenome is the only Indian laboratory to be CAP accredited for Whole genome/ exome sequencing, CfDNA (Cell free DNA) testing for liquid biopsy and NIPT (Non-invasive prenatal screening test) and high resolution HLA typing.
