Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA '88) regulations specify that at least 10% of negative Papanicolaou (Pap) slides be rescreened as a quality control (QC) measure. With incorporation of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing into screening guidelines for women aged 30 years or older, a population of patients exists who are HPV positive as well as negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM).
