Summary:

In the beginning of 2007, Dr Carlos Urmacher, the Chief Medical Officer of CBLPath, and David Bryant, President and Chief Operating Officer of CBLPath, found themselves in the curious position of having their clients ask for their help in reducing the amount of work they were sending to CBLPath. The company was not alone in this situation. Throughout the country, large medical groups were 'insourcing' pathology. CBLPath was a medium-sized commercial anatomic pathology lab, serving medical practices on the east coast of the United States. Like other anatomic pathology labs, CBLPath had established relationships with medical practices that needed to have tissue samples (biopsies) analyzed for the presence of disease. Physicians would take biopsies of suspect tissue and courier them to CBLPath's labs. This case study discusses this topic.
