What you'll accomplish

By the end of this guide, you'll have a Claude Project with CLIA regulations, CAP standards summaries, and CLSI reference content uploaded as searchable documents. You'll be able to ask "what does CLIA require for critical value calls?" and get an answer in 10 seconds — with the relevant regulatory text — instead of searching through a 200-page document.

What you'll need

  • Claude Pro subscription ($20/month at claude.ai)
  • Downloaded copies of regulatory documents (see Step 2 for sources)
  • Time needed: 60-90 minutes initial setup; 30 seconds per lookup after that
  • Cost: $20/month (Claude Pro)
