The New Partnership Aims to Improve Access to Quality Healthcare for Sana MD Patients

MIAMI, May 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Getlabs, the nationwide leader for at-home diagnostic collections, announced today a new partnership with Sana MD, the advanced primary care practice of Sana, a rapidly growing healthcare benefits provider. The collaboration will enable Sana MD patients with a more convenient and reliable way to obtain high-quality laboratory testing through Getlabs' at-home specimen collection services.

Under the partnership, Sana MD patients will have access to Getlabs' network of licensed phlebotomists who can collect blood and other specimens from the comfort of patient's homes. When patients receive a lab order from their Sana MD Primary Care Provider, they will be given the option to have a Getlabs visit scheduled for them.

"Partnering with Getlabs is an important step forward in our mission to provide affordable, accessible, and high-quality healthcare to our members," said Sana's co-founder and CEO, Will Young. "By offering at-home specimen collection services, we can remove one of the main barriers to accessing laboratory testing and improve health outcomes for our members."

The partnership with Getlabs is part of Sana MD's ongoing efforts to modernize and streamline the healthcare system, making it more patient-centered and cost-effective. By leveraging the latest technologies and innovations, Sana MD aims to create a better healthcare experience for all, from patients to providers to employers.

We look forward to working with Sana MD to help more people get the care they need, when and where they need it."

The partnership between Getlabs and Sana MD launched in Austin, TX but is expected to benefit patients across the state and country as Sana MD expands its footprint, offering a new level of convenience and quality in laboratory testing.
