Healthcare systems globally are under increasing pressure from higher costs and greater demand. IVDs used at the right time for a patient provide early access to an accurate diagnosis and lead to earlier treatment.

This results in better outcomes with fewer appointments or referrals to hospital. Earlier diagnosis can reduce the number of strokes, heart attacks and provide better management of long-term conditions. This in turn keeps people out of A&E and informs therapeutic and drug treatments, which contributing to better antibiotic use, more precision medicines and companion diagnostics and more efficient use of resources across the healthcare system.
