MEET THE TEST
What does NHA CPT Phlebotomy practice cover?
Understand the scope of this practice resource.
Good collection starts before the needle is used and continues through the specimen handoff. Study identity, preparation and consent together with equipment selection, collection order and handling. When a product or laboratory procedure differs, use the stated instructions rather than assuming one rule fits every setting.
The current form follows the CPT plan implemented January 7, 2026. It is knowledge practice, not a substitute for required live collections, supervised training or certification eligibility.
