POCT Quality Questionnaire

This Point of Care Testing (POCT) Quality Questionnaire is sent to you in an effort to keep up with the quality monitoring of ZTAS POCT sites, while options for on-site monitoring are limited. Online POCT quality monitoring intends to assure that expected regulatory standards for quality of Point of care testing can continue to be met and the quality of your results remains at a satisfactory and trustworthy standard to allow for the dispensing of Zaponex treatment to your patients.

The completion of this POCT Quality Questionnaire may be followed up by a 'virtual' or physical monitoring visit at later date, as is appropriate.
