Consulting for Diagnostic Laboratories Seeking Payer Coverage

Launching a novel diagnostic test requires more than scientific innovation. It requires a clear strategy for demonstrating clinical value to health plans and payer medical directors responsible for coverage decisions.

Salut Collaborative Advisors works with laboratories and diagnostic innovators to ensure that evidence packages align with the criteria used in real-world medical policy development.

Our advisory services focus on:

Evidence Alignment

We evaluate analytic validity, clinical validity, and clinical utility using the same frameworks commonly applied in payer policy reviews.

Coverage Readiness

Many diagnostics fail to achieve coverage not because the science is weak, but because evidence does not align with payer decision frameworks. We help laboratories anticipate these gaps before payer engagement.

Policy Strategy

We guide laboratories in developing strategies that support favorable medical policy development and long-term reimbursement success.
