Now, begin your strategic planning for 2008 with an in-depth look at the current
state of anatomic pathology testing across the country.
While test volumes in 2007 are expected to increase in fluorescent in situ
hybridization (FISH) testing and PCR-based testing, Medicare reimbursements
for most commonly billed anatomic pathology procedures fell in 2007 as compared
to 2006.
Will your testing volumes increase enough in 2007 to offset the loss of income
associated with declining reimbursements? If not, then what does 2008 hold for
you?
This new research report, based on nearly 200 exclusive survey responses and
featuring presentations from scores of pathologists and interviews with lab
industry executives, consultants and government executives, is designed to be
your essential guide to successful planning and management of an anatomic pathology
lab in 2008.
With it, you’ll make better, more effective decisions about running your
