The development of federally funded centers throughout the United States for the diagnosis and treatment of hemophilia, incorporating the concept of comprehensive care by the multidisciplinary team, has brought to the forefront the importance of understanding the role of the "specialist" in the team. The laboratory technologist, as part of this team, must understand the nature of this disorder to be an active participant in the decision-making process for patients with hemophilia. With this information the technologist, in conjunction with the comprehensive care team, can help streamline laboratory care of the patient as well as provide expertise for testing and interpretation of laboratory results.
