The Bureau of Laboratories in compliance with Public Act 14 of 1987, serves as the sole site for performing newborn screening tests.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has provided a list of 'Genomic Competencies' for public health professionals in the laboratory sciences.

Some of the genomic competencies for laboratorians include: 
  • Establish basic analytical and quality assurance performance criteria for genetic tests. For an update on how Michigan's laboratories are meeting this goal, please read more about the Quality Assurance Section by clicking here .
  • Communicate genetic test limitations, complexities, implications and relevant information from laboratory data. One source, published by the MDCH Bureau of Laboratories, is the LabLink Newsletter (click here to view), a tool used to update Michigan's laboratory community.
  • Advocate laboratory participation in genomic policy and regulatory development. The Laboratory Improvement Section also helps Michigan laboratories in the licensing and certifying process.
