Public Health Laboratories

Public health laboratories are essential to protecting America's health. They perform core public health and environmental activities including the following:
  • The vast majority of public health reference tests
  • Disease prevention, control, and surveillance
  • Population-based interventions
  • Communication with healthcare providers on appropriate patient care
  • Emergency response efforts
Numerous federal and state laws, including laboratory licensure laws, health privacy laws, disease reporting, and newborn screening laws, govern and affect public health laboratories.
