Marshall Health Network – Rivers Health announced the successful completion of the College of American Pathologists (CAP) reaccreditation inspection at the Rivers Health laboratory.

The CAP inspection process, which occurs every two years, includes an on-site assessment by trained peer inspectors who review the laboratory’s quality management system, technical competency and operational practices.
