The Spirit Lake Health Center’s laboratory does about 90% of it tests in house, with only about 10% of our tests being sent out to are reference laboratory in Bismarck. This allows us to provide our medical team with quick results so we can provide treatment for the patients we serve. Our laboratory is inspected every two years by COLA, Commission on Office Laboratory Accreditation. They inspect us based on CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments) guidelines. These guidelines ensure we are providing accurate results for both providers and patients.
