Lab costs

Lab costs

The ARUP App, powered by the IllumiCare Smart Ribbon, provides clinicians with a high-level view of the financial and clinical impact of lab orders including access to the ARUP Consult® web tool and ARUP Frequency Algorithms.

We never tell the provider not to order another test. We just provide them with the context they need to make a proper judgment about whether the utility of that next test is worth the cost and patient risk.

Labs ordered by cost and date

Labs ordered in the current admission are sorted by cost per test, with the most recent test date noted.

Phlebotomy blood loss

IllumiCare uses a patent-pending method for estimating phlebotomy blood loss (ml) by day of length of stay. This reinforces that labs have both human and economic cost.

Probability of a lab-induced anemia
We provide clinicians with a probability of hospital-acquired anemia associated with phlebotomy blood loss. Blood transfusions are expensive for the hospital and potentially problematic for patients.
