Abstract
Background: Laboratory medicine has and continues to undergo significant transformation. This paper reviews top trends associated with laboratory medicine using insights, evidence, and outcomes derived from the UNIVANTS of Healthcare ExcellenceTM award program.
Methods: Seventy-two judge-approved best practices of measurably better healthcare were assessed for trends and insights related to outcomes and opportunities for highlighting the value of laboratory medicine.
Results: Ten industry-relevant and insightful takeaways are identified that span stakeholders and key performance indicators.
Conclusion: With evidence that spans 5 years, the findings not only substantiate the critical value of laboratory medicine, but reveal trends associated with award-winning teams, proven integrated clinical care initiatives, and the measurement of their associated outcomes.
