Local Benefits

How will community-based laboratory services benefit local physicians and their patients?

 

The combination of primary physicians, laboratory services and other healthcare providers working together creates a truly effective healthcare team and delivery system. This results in a higher standard of patient care - one that is appropriate, seamless, cost-effective and highly efficient.

 

  • Provide routine and STAT testing 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 
  • Implement clinically relevant testing strategies based on laboratory testing menus specific to the community.
  • Decrease turnaround time to eliminate repeat office visits and duplicate testing.
  • Integrate inpatient, outpatient and reference testing.
  • Provide access to comprehensive anatomic and clinical laboratory expertise.
  • Keep local dollars in the community.
