Phlebotomy Technician in Louisiana

Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners (LSBME)

Louisiana licenses phlebotomists as Clinical Laboratory Personnel through the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners. A state license is required, and you must have passed a board-approved national certification exam (the exam agency sends the score directly to the board; the application fee is $40). The official page does not publish a required training-hour count or an in-page list of approved organizations, so we mark those to confirm rather than guess. The national exam is in English; our multilingual practice questions are a study aid.

State rules change often. This table shows only facts confirmed from an official state agency source on the date noted; anything unconfirmed is marked “to confirm.” In the ~46 states not listed, there is no state phlebotomy license — national certification (ASCP, NHA, AMT, NCCT, etc.) is voluntary or employer-driven. Always verify current requirements with your state agency or certifying organization before you register.
