What Labs Do Now, What They are Planning in the Future
There has been much analysis in recent years about the inroads that DNA testing has made. This unique resource offers a way to measure that progress, and test assumptions aobut the evolution of DNA testing, critical information to adjust business stratetgies. This report looks at the following topics:
- What type of reagents are labs using (Commercial, ASR, Homebrew)
- Where tests are performed (Central/Core Testing Lab, Chemistry Lab, Cytology Lab, Genetics Lab, Hematology Lab, Microbiology Lab, Molecular Lab, Pathology Lab, Serology/Immunology Lab, Virology Lab)
- What Vendors are Labs Using
- What are there Purchasing Plans
- What Tests Do They Want in the Future
- Do They Outsource and at what Rate?
- Do They plan Vendor Changes?
A Representative Sample of the US Hospital Lab Industry
Emmes Group reached an extensive sample group – interviewing 14% of US hospital labs, 14% of public labs and 8% of US reference lab, where Emmes respondent numbers are compared to the Americian Hospital Directory. Such an undertaking would cost an individual company tens of thousands of dollars. This information is available to purchasers of this report at a fraction of the cost.
