CLIA waiver state checklist

CLIA Certificate of Waiver requirements in Georgia for med spas and clinics.

Georgia appears in the state overlay workbook as a state licensure packet route.

This page is an educational prep checklist. It does not confirm approval, legal compliance, or waived status for any specific device.

State overlay checklist

  • Clinical laboratory licensure application packet may be required before or alongside CLIA processing.
  • Some narrow pharmacy waived-test scenarios may be exempt from state licensure, but not from CMS-116 submission.
  • Confirm applicability with Georgia Department of Community Health for med-spa or clinic models.

Fee and timing note

Expect state-agency review when a licensure packet is needed. Verify current DCH processing and fees.
