We realize that in healthcare, you can’t go it alone. It takes partners and associates coming together in collaboration to achieve efficient, cost-effective care for patients. We also understand the financial and operational pressures faced by today’s hospitals and healthcare systems, because we are a hospital too. Group purchasing organizations (GPOs) and purchasing groups (PGs) help hospitals by shouldering the burden of negotiating the best member pricing and benefits with quality suppliers. At Mayo Clinic Laboratories, we welcome the opportunity to serve members by establishing relationships with their GPOs and PGs to provide member access to our broad esoteric testing menu and services.
Building laboratory value
The financial pressure on hospitals continues. To help, we can support hospital laboratories by evaluating current utilization, capacity, and processes to help reduce waste, find efficiencies, and maximize capabilities for optimal financial performance.
We also offer support in building and expanding laboratory outreach programs. Our experienced, industry-leading outreach consultants offer unparalleled insights and experience to help hospital-based laboratories evolve from cost-centers to revenue generators. Learn more about how we can support laboratories’ optimization and revenue-generation goals.
Driving efficiency through consolidation
Most hospital laboratories find themselves sending tests to an increasing number of commercial and specialty reference laboratories. Managing the complexities of these various relationships increases operational burden, staff workload, and inconsistencies in testing methods and interpretation of results.
Hospitals and health systems can optimize their laboratory testing referrals by leveraging our extensive test menu, which includes advanced diagnostics, cutting-edge technology, and clinically relevant new tests across our full spectrum of medical subspecialties.
“The type of service we provide is really tailored to the needs of the hospital or to the healthcare system. And their patients are no different than the patients that walk through our doors.”
William Morice, M.D., Ph.D., CEO and President of Mayo Clinic Laboratories
Sharing knowledge and empowering staff
We support care teams by providing insights and education as they strive to solve the most complex medical challenges. Our education offerings range from conferences to on-demand programs to webinars — many of which offer CME credit. View our extensive educational offerings.
In addition, hospital and laboratory staff have direct access to Mayo Clinic physicians and scientists, who can help with optimizing test orders and interpreting results. Mayo Clinic Laboratories provides each client with a dedicated team of account, clinical, and laboratory technical professionals.
Prioritizing patient care
With guidance from our practicing physicians, we continuously develop testing algorithms, invest in research, and develop new tests so that patients have access to the best testing available. As a hospital-based reference laboratory, our focus is helping clients prevent overutilization of laboratory testing, drive efficiency through consolidation of send-out testing, and generate hospital revenue by establishing and growing lab outreach programs. And, we provide benefits only available through a connection with a world-class medical institution: access to our Mayo Clinic physicians and consultants, educational offerings, and the most cutting-edge, clinically-based testing available in the market.

Mayo Clinic Laboratories' specimen pickup and delivery schedules will be altered due to the upcoming July 4th holiday. To ensure specimen stability and prevent delays, follow the guidelines outlined below for domestic clients and international clients.
PACE/State of FL This webinar will provide a methodology for laboratory leadership to review their test menu for assays that most impact the financial health of their laboratory.
There is a major weather system moving across the United States that may impact specimen transport. Winter storm Finn is expected to spread snow, strong winds, and create possible blizzard conditions into the Plains and Midwest. This may impact courier pickups and cause delays at major hubs (Fed Ex and UPS). We are monitoring and tracking this situation with our logistics partners and are prepared to adjust to minimize challenges. Clients should expect to be contacted directly by the couriers should any routes be modified or canceled.

This week's research roundup feature: To describe a 41-year-old woman with a history of neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease, on treatment with daily subcutaneous injections of 600 mg of recombinant interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) protein, anakinra, since the age of 28, who presented with golf-ball size nodules at the anakinra injection sites, early satiety, new onset nephrotic syndrome in the context of normal markers of systemic inflammation.
On the brink of losing her battle with acute myeloid leukemia, Shannon Camlek arrived at Mayo Clinic as a last hope. Her chances didn’t look good, but with the help of specialized genetic testing, particularly FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) studies, doctors were able to detect the specific gene mutations responsible for her symptoms and disease. The test results also helped Shannon’s care team target her treatment accordingly, and finally put an end to what Shannon likens as starring in her own personal horror movie while in search of hope and healing.
Recognizing the significance of eudaimonic well-being in the workplace is essential for employers, as fostering a sense of purpose and fulfillment among employees not only enhances individual satisfaction but also contributes to a positive and resilient organizational culture, ultimately driving long-term success and employee engagement.
