Rapid Tests and Controls are needed to provide a timely test for the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) in clinical and non-clinical test settings and tests MUST BE CLIA-waived rapid tests.

CLIA-waived rapid tests can be used in settings such as: community-based organizations, field testing, outreach activities, STD or other clinics, mobile clinics, non-traditional testing, or community/college clinics. The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) sets criteria based on complexity levels of tests. Briefly, there are three levels of complexity: 1) Waived - simple, low-risk tests that can be performed with minimal training that do not require centrifugation of specimens for testing, 2) Moderate Complexity - simple tests that use plasma or serum specimens (must participate in an external proficiency testing program), 3) High Complexity - tests that require trained laboratory personnel, involve multiple-step protocols, frequent quality control, and participation in an external proficiency testing program. For more information about CLIA regulations go to Link to CLIA Regulations. Sensitivity is a measure of the test's ability to correctly identify persons with a disease. Specificity is the test's ability to correctly identify persons without the disease.
