The contributions of clinical laboratory screening and diagnostic tests to health care quality and outcomes are substantial. These contributions were described in an earlier report from The Lewin Group, The Value of Diagnostics Innovation, Adoption, and Diffusion in Health Care (2005). This report updates key elements of that study, providing a current overview of the important role of laboratory screening and diagnostic tests in our health care system, today’s means of assessing value, and four case studies documenting value of specific tests to patient care.

"Throughout the engagement, Lewin consultants listened to us and delivered superb analyses and thoughtful guidance–not canned solutions."  NONPROFIT HEALTH SYSTEM
