Abstract
Background: Many organizations institute laboratory diagnostic stewardship (DS) programs to improve the utilization of laboratory resources.
Methods: In this paper, we describe the road to implementing laboratory DS in a large, not-for-profit integrated delivery network located in the western United States.
Results: Program structure, projects, challenges, and future opportunities are discussed, providing tactics and opportunities that facilities can employ to maximize their initial foray into the DS landscape.
Conclusions: With effective planning and organization, laboratory DS can be implemented by any organization to realize resource optimization and financial benefits while maintaining high levels of patient care.
