## Description

This is a new requirement for a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP). Purchase Order in support of the patient care mission for U.S. Air Force Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs) in accordance with Army Regulation 40-3 Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Care, Chapter 14 Medical Laboratory Management.

Clinical reference laboratory testing includes comprehensive support generally encompassing the American Medical Association's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) coding within the range of 80047 to 88399, and includes, but is not limited to, support across multiple clinical and anatomic pathology disciplines to include chemistry, hematology and coagulation, urinalysis, transfusion medicine, microbiology, molecular, histology, cytology, and genetic testing.

The reference laboratory must be capable of providing comprehensive reference laboratory support which includes current support of 5,482 unique, individually orderable tests and panels across all the aforementioned disciplines performed.

Reference laboratory support should provide "one stop shopping" (i.e., maximize the use of their network of laboratories as opposed to referral to other commercial reference laboratories) in order to minimize testing delays, facilitate identification of test requirements and costs, and track pending tests.
