Quality Control An ISO 9001/2017 Certified Facility

PHBC is dedicated to enhancing the performance and quality of services, diagnosis and research through the implementation of the highest international quality standards. Since the initial accreditation of ISO 9001/2008 in April 2011, PHBC has made significant progress toward ensuring quality control and now continues through the application of College of American Pathologists (CAP) standards.  The Center is also actively involved in proficiency testing with Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The procedures for finding, reviewing and auditing are managed under the mandate of the Center’s Quality Control Division. The Division performs scheduled assessments of the previous operations and establishes new objectives. This system of quality control has been of significant benefit to the Center in allowing it provide better services. These accomplishments have been made possible through the application of local and international certifications, and validation of the quality of service in collaboration with other local and international laboratories.
