\"Getting<\/a>The proliferation of molecular diagnostics is bringing a tidal wave of complexity, cost and quality issues for payers, clinicians and laboratories. Although clinical laboratory testing costs represent only 3 percent of total health care costs, diagnostic testing influences 70 percent of all health care decisions.  Therefore, payers are accelerating efforts to appropriately manage the utilization and reimbursement of molecular diagnostics and genetic tests. Payer initiatives include developing utilization management programs, such as pre-authorizations r notifications, to identify genetic and molecular tests using stacked codes, ensure medical appropriateness, and encourage increased use of in-network laboratories.<\/p>

Payers will likely require pre-authorization\/ notification for clinical laboratories and pathology groups, just as they have done for radiology.  To stay ahead of evolving requirements, successful laboratories are deploying technology to collaborate real-time with clinicians, payers and other laboratories. In addition to making payer rules, benefits and coverage policies transparent to ordering clinicians, patients and laboratories at the point of care (or within the context of an order, successful technology deployments enable early adopters to further penetrate their market, increase clinician loyalty and better manage their utilization and relationships with payers.<\/p>
