Laboratory Setup

Expertise you need

It is easy to get caught up in creating your “Dream” laboratory. Creating a laboratory that fits your needs and patient volume is key to making a POL a profitable scenario.

• Budget – Create a realistic budget and stick to it
• Efficiency – Workflow and functionality are key to an efficient configuration
• Equipment – Select equipment that is a good fit for your lab, not units with unnecessary bells and whistles
• Experts – Consulting with an organization that specializes in laboratory setups can help save you from costly errors that can delay certification of the lab.

Physician Practices

In today's fast-paced medical environment, Physician practices are operated as small businesses, and it can be difficult to balance patient care and the overall desired profitability of the practice. One way to increase this profitability, while improving patient outcomes, is to place an on-site laboratory within the practice. With the capabilities to process pathology in-house, the turnaround time and the ability to provide the highest level of quality possible are solely within your control. This means less time waiting on your patient's results, faster treatment, and elimination of the chances of a specimen being lost in transit to an offsite lab.
