By January 13, 2022, the Doctors Clinical Laboratory was under investigation by the Center for Clinical Standards and Quality, part of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Investigations in November and December had found serious problems with CCC and DCL, stating "non-compliance" and cited the lab for "immediate jeopardy".[6][7]
