The timing may allow for the new specialty or subspecialty to be reviewed during the recertification survey. If a revisit needs to be performed, the SA determines whether the revisit should be onsite or offsite depending on the added specialty or subspecialty and equipment in place at the laboratory. The SA should contact CMS for further guidance if needed.
