As the leader in transforming lab data into actionable insights, hc1 is the ideal partner for CEOs to tap into the strategic opportunity for the lab to improve patient health while increasing system-wide profits.
The last untapped areas of cost and risk in your health system
Test utilization and patient blood management are two of the last untapped areas of cost and risk in US health systems. Billions of dollars are spent every year on unnecessary lab testing. Blood acquisition is the highest single procurement cost in the lab while 20–30% of all blood transfusions are unnecessary and avoidable. Anemia frequently goes untreated, leaving surgery patients at risk for complications and increased length of stay.
However, many health systems lack the data and tools to identify all of these risks and the playbooks and expertise to implement change.
Lack of Data
Health systems often lack actionable data and work across disparate systems, leading to clinical variability.
Lack of Resources
Critical staffing shortages continue to plague healthcare, leaving little capacity to focus on utilization initiatives.
Lack of Expertise
Many health systems lack expertise in the areas of laboratory stewardship and patient blood management.
