Who We Are
Our Vision
The cost of healthcare is out of control. To put it lightly.
Too many unneeded tests. Or, worse yet, too many missed tests—costing us all down the road.
Scientific advancements are accelerating, and the world of genetics is exploding.
It’s getting harder to keep up, let alone keep people healthy.
At Avalon, we are pioneering a new era of value-driven care by unlocking the potential of lab values to proactively drive appropriate care and enhance clinical outcomes.
We have developed the world’s first Lab Insights System to help our customers enable value-driven care in this dynamic and increasingly challenging environment.
By generating actionable lab-driven insights in real time at scale, we help our customers accelerate results and unleash new opportunities to achieve the Triple Aim.
Avalon’s access to lab data, combined with the comprehensive lab benefit management experience and leadership in lab sciences, provides a powerful platform for analytics and the realization of patient-centered, value-based care—right from the start with lab testing.
It’s time to start thinking differently about lab.
