At Sunrise Clinical Labs, we recognize the critical role that laboratory professionals play in saving lives every day. As per CDC data, 70% of medical decisions rely on laboratory test results, highlighting the indispensable contribution of clinical laboratories in today's healthcare landscape. With over 260,000 CLIA-certified laboratories nationwide and approximately 14 billion tests conducted annually, ensuring safety, quality, and cost-effectiveness in laboratory testing is paramount for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of diseases.
Moreover, in the face of potential threats to national security and public health, such as disease outbreaks or bioterrorist attacks, reliable laboratory services become even more crucial. Unfortunately, preventable diagnostic errors contribute to an estimated 40,000–80,000 deaths annually, underscoring the importance of accuracy and precision in diagnostic testing.
Furthermore, patients in rural areas often encounter obstacles in accessing healthcare and laboratory services, limiting their ability to receive timely and adequate care. At Sunrise Clinical Labs, we are committed to overcoming these barriers by providing accessible, high-quality laboratory services to communities across the nation.
By prioritizing safety, quality, and accessibility, Sunrise Clinical Labs strives to uphold the highest standards in diagnostic medicine, ensuring that patients receive the care they need when they need it most.
