Using Telepathology to Improve Patient Care and Lab Workflow: Modernizing IFS and ROSE in the Face of Staffing Shortages
Intraoperative frozen section (IFS) consultation and rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) are vital diagnostic pathology tools, enabling real-time decision-making that directly impacts patient outcomes. However, pathology departments are under unprecedented strain – the global shortage of pathologists is growing, with many nearing retirement age and fewer new pathologists entering the field. The result is overextended professionals, delayed diagnoses, and potential declines in the quality of patient care.
Leveraging Custom Software For Enhanced Financial Management in a Laboratory
In today’s fast-paced healthcare environment, laboratories face increasing pressure to deliver accurate results quickly while adhering to stringent quality and regulatory standards and maintaining financial health. Custom software automation can be the key to unlocking your lab’s full potential. This white paper will present a case study exploring the benefits of software automation in three key areas of genetics laboratory administration: clinical laboratory operations, accounts payable, and claims management.
Combating Antimicrobial Resistance: Aligning Policy, Advocacy, and Scientific Innovation
This white paper serves as a practical guide to enhance the understanding of Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is a growing global health crisis that threatens human, animal, and environmental health. AMR results in higher rates of illness and death, as infections become increasingly difficult to manage, and it is projected to surpass cancer as the leading cause of death by 2050, underscoring the critical importance of addressing this issue across local, state, and global levels.
Guide to AI-Enabled Revenue Cycle Management for Molecular Diagnostics and Pathology Practices
In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, molecular diagnostics and pathology laboratories face increasing challenges in maximizing revenue. Accurately estimating out-of-pocket costs and collecting payments efficiently can be challenging, often leading to delays and patient dissatisfaction. Additionally, ensuring timely and accurate claim submissions is crucial for maximizing revenue, but manual processes can be time-consuming and error-prone.
Best Practices in Molecular Assay Validation for Laboratory-Developed Tests
This comprehensive white paper is designed to be your go-to guide, providing invaluable insights into critical success factors and essential functions crucial for maintaining compliance and delivering reliable results. Tailored for clinical molecular laboratory staff, this resource delves into the tangible aspects of compliant method validation, offering practical strategies for proving the accuracy and efficacy of laboratory-developed tests (LDTs).
Point of Care Testing for Infectious Diseases: Navigating CLIA Compliance and Ensuring Quality
When it comes to point-of-care (POC) testing for infectious diseases, a meticulously crafted quality system is not just an option—it’s a necessity. Ensuring safety and satisfaction hinges on having the right practices in place. This comprehensive white paper is designed to be your go-to guide, providing invaluable insights into critical success factors and essential functions crucial for maintaining compliance and delivering reliable results. Tailored for POC teams outside the clinical laboratory, this resource delves into the tangible aspects of good laboratory practice and regulatory compliance, offering practical knowledge applicable to both routine and urgent patient care settings.
