Leveraging your health system’s infrastructure to expand lab services can give you a strategic advantage. In particular, hospital-based laboratory outreach programs can better serve communities while creating new revenue streams, improving health outcomes, and enhancing clinician satisfaction.

Under the Protecting Access to Medicare Act from 2014, the data used to set laboratory fees comes from large commercial labs. The result? Reductions in payment rates that affect all labs, particularly those in rural and underserved areas.

We endorse the RESULTS Act, which would address these steep payment cuts and provide greater price stability.

The Doctor of Clinical Laboratory Science (DCLS) is a fairly new degree that uniquely equips its graduates to meet certain key challenges in patient care.

Laborastories host Dr. Paul J. Jannetto and Dr. Kacy Peterson explore the emerging career paths that DCLS holders are taking, as well as how these professionals further proper test selection and interpretation, provide support on evidence-based best practices and guidelines, and foster collaboration between laboratorians and clinicians. https://ow.ly/7oZe50Xugto

Unlike alcohol, which has a 0.08% legal blood limit in the United States for drivers, cannabis has no single, nation-wide agreed upon legal limit for drivers — and the legal limits that some states do have might not be scientifically credible, according to new research in ADLM’s Clinical Chemistry journal.

This study adds to a growing body of evidence that regular users of cannabis may face legal risks associated with driving under the influence days after their last use, despite showing no evidence of impairment. https://ow.ly/Wecc50Xr8Fk

Relying solely on the central laboratory for urinalysis testing comes with the risk of losing patients to follow up.

In this episode of Laborastories, hosted by Dr. Ian Lentnek from Siemens Healthineers, Dr. Nicholas Larkey, point-of-care (POC) medical director at the University of Virginia School of Medicine, discusses the advantages of POC testing for urinalysis and how to leverage it to increase workflow efficiency, generate faster results, and improve diagnostic accuracy.
