Summary Canada plays a significant role in standards development through institutions like SCC, CSA and ISO. By definition, a standard is an authoritative “document” setting forth criteria for performance and characteristics. This presentation will discuss what makes a standard, Canada’s involvement in standards development, the role of IQMH Accreditation and the application of ISO in its foundation, the quality system thinking, differences between accreditation bodies, and IQMH strategic relationships. At the end of this talk, it will be clear how IQMH elevates confidence in the system of diagnostic testing.

Flynn, B.Sc., MD, FRCPC, Chief Executive Officer As the Managing Director of the Quality Management Program—Laboratory Services (QMP–LS) since 2006, Flynn helped launch IQMH in order to offer QMP–LS services in other jurisdictions.

He has devoted much of his recent career to the improvement of quality in healthcare and was a member of the Provincial Advisory Group on Laboratory Reform.
