Which of the following types of tests is a phlebotomist allowed to perform according to CLIA regulations

Flow cytometry is a complex and advanced laboratory technique that requires specialized training and skills. It involves analyzing the physical and chemical characteristics of cells or particles, which goes beyond the scope of responsibilities assigned to phlebotomists under CLIA regulations.

Genetic molecular tests often require intricate procedures and detailed analysis that necessitate the expertise of specialized laboratory personnel. Therefore, phlebotomists are not authorized to perform these tests as they require advanced knowledge of genetic principles and molecular biology.

Electrophoresis is a sophisticated laboratory technique used to separate macromolecules such as proteins or nucleic acids based on their size and charge. This testing method demands a level of technical skill and understanding that exceeds the capabilities of a phlebotomist, thus falling outside their permissible scope of practice under CLIA.
