  • 1.05 Contracted services: where the practice subcontracts or coordinates pathology services for other organisations, ensure subcontractors are accredited to the relevant NPAAC standards or a recognised equivalent such as ISO 17025 where NPAAC standards do not apply, and liaise with the subcontractor's scientific, clinical and administrative staff

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
