While not a complete list of instrument and equipment vendors, the CLIA-approved vendor lists below make an excellent starting point for laboratories seeking to add to its testing inventory.

The following two tables list vendors verified to sell CLIA-waived instruments and/or test kits. CLIA-waived instruments and test kits are deemed as being simple to use and as having little chance in providing wrong [[information]] or harming someone. The vendors were pulled from the FDA's [https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-databases/clinical-laboratory-improvement-amendments-download-data downloadable CLIA file] from November 2021. The file was sorted to pull out the CLIA-waived devices, and then the vendors were researched to see if they still actively marketed the listed product(s). In some cases, the vendor listed on the FDA file was acquired by another company. If the associated products were still found to be marketed by the acquiring company, that company name was used. CLIA-waived device and test kit types are given as a general guide to what CLIA-waived items the vendor offers.
