Praia Health, a consumer experience orchestration platform for health systems, announced it has secured a strategic investment from the Labcorp Venture Fund and will collaborate with Labcorp, a leader of innovative and comprehensive laboratory services, to streamline and personalize the patient experience for lab orders and testing within select health systems.
Praia Health’s platform identifies patients with lab orders and offers tailored notifications and cards within a health system’s mobile application or logged-in web experience. And patients can easily schedule lab tests ordered by their physicians and find the closest appropriate Labcorp facility, ensuring their specific testing and lab requirements are met, including service availability, operating hours and staffing.
This collaboration will initially launch at Providence, one of the nation’s largest and most innovative health systems, at their Puget Sound location.
