IMC Lab Excellence: Reaccreditation Survey

May 13, 2026

Iberia Medical Center’s Laboratory recently underwent a comprehensive three-day survey by the College of American Pathologists (CAP) and received reaccreditation.


Recognized for its rigorous standards, CAP accreditation elevates quality and helps laboratories contribute to improved patient outcomes.


During the recent CAP accreditation process, designed to ensure the highest standard of care for all laboratory patients, inspectors examined our laboratory’s quality control, testing protocols and compliance with accreditation standards. CAP inspectors also examined laboratory staff qualifications, equipment, facilities, safety program and record, and overall management. These reviews helped to verify the laboratory’s operational performance and reflect the most recent best practices.


Surveyors were impressed with lab processes and efficiencies, and made additional positive comments about their entire experience while at Iberia Medical Center. 


Congratulations to the pathology and laboratory medicine team for this significant accomplishment that further demonstrates our commitment to high-quality patient care, patient safety and best practices.
