Linden, NJ, October 27, 2018 – ACCU Reference Medical Lab announces it has just formed a long-term, strategic partnership in September with HealthFirst as the two organizations focus on new ways to create more personalized recommendations for healthcare.
Now, ACCU Reference Medical Lab is in network for all HealthFirst plan participants in NY State.
“The partnership includes a broad range of value-based programs, rewarding high quality, easily accessible laboratory services at the best value,” said ACCU Reference Medical Lab CEO Kamran Alison. “In addition, the partnership enables real-time data sharing to drive personalized care support.”
Examples of this timely access to laboratory test results include:
- 1-day turnaround molecular tests for respiratory and gastric infections

Real-time data sharing is crucial for anticipating people’s varying care needs. What’s more, it reduces gaps in care.

The organizations are setting industry-leading standards for the entire patient experience, most notably in terms of ease of access.
