Go paperless – What Happens When You Switch?
Your laboratory will get information electronically, specifically:
- Email notifications from CMS
- Electronic fee coupons – no more paper coupons*
- Electronic CLIA certificates – no more waiting for it to come in the mail*
*This does not apply to CLIA exempt states or state licensure.
How to Switch
You can switch to electronic notifications from CMS or update your email address by:
-
Emailing your State Agency.
Tip: Include your laboratory name, laboratory director or owner’s name, CLIA number, director or designee’s signature to help your State Agency make the switch.
-
Contacting your Accreditation Organization (for accredited laboratories).
They can add or update email addresses for the laboratories they survey.
