What is Regulated Medical Waste

Regulated Medical Waste (RMW), and similar terms such as, biohazardous medical waste or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM), generally refer to waste saturated with liquid or semi-liquid blood, contaminated sharps, and pathological wastes. There are a few types of waste that are typically classified as regulated. Each waste type typically has specific treatment requirements that may vary by state.
