Promerica Health Receives COLA Recertification

COLA accreditation is given only to laboratories that apply rigid standards of quality in day-to-day operations, demonstrate continued accuracy in the performance of proficiency testing and pass a rigorous on-site laboratory survey. COLA is a nonprofit, physician-directed organization promoting quality and excellence in medicine and patient care through programs of voluntary education, achievement, and accreditation and is approved by the federal government and sponsored by the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Medical Association, and the American College of Physicians-American Society of Internal Medicine.

"COLA accreditation is not typical for corporate wellness companies, and it is not a requirement for performing the fingerstick, point-of-care testing that is typical of a mobile health screening program," said Woods. "Accreditation is one of many attributes that distinguishes Promerica Health from others, and we will continue to strive to not only meet the standard of care but to establish it."

Promerica Health has established itself as a leading provider of health screenings, employee wellness programming and related solutions with a variety of Fortune 500 clients. Screenings available include biometrics, blood testing, EKG, vision and hearing tests, mammography, and wellness coaching, among others, and are tailored to an individual company's needs. The company utilizes a fleet of custom-designed mobile health vehicles to take its laboratory to employees at branch locations, distribution centers, and worksites nationally.
