SKOKIE, IL / ACCESSWIRE / November 8, 2023 / Lifescan Health (Lifescan), a CLIA-certified diagnostics laboratory announced a strategic partnership with TBD Health, a sexual healthcare provider offering digital and in-person clinical care. As part of Lifescan’s recent growth initiatives, this partnership represents a major step forward in delivering next-day, at-home testing solutions to a broader population that addresses a critical health issue.
“We are very excited about the future,” said Mr. Elly Kutoff, Lifescan’s CEO. “Over the past year, we have been working on developing a number of pivotal strategic partnerships to help launch some of our expanded services. We believe the at-home testing market is a key opportunity not just for consumers but for providers like TBD that understand where healthcare delivery is headed. The ability for patients to test from the comfort and privacy of home, and trust that they can receive reliable results within 24 hours is a game changer.”
“It’s an amazing achievement to roll out new products and services, like our at-home test kits, and know they are playing an instrumental role in helping health providers like TBD to offer innovative care delivery solutions. Key to this success is also ensuring that our products are the best the industry has to offer.

Lifescan is developing a full line of at-home test kits that pair with the company’s existing full-suite diagnostic capabilities, using Hologic’s collection devices and tests. Their advanced infrastructure is capable of processing tests and delivering accurate results in as little as 24 hours, providing consumers and providers with a proven system to support rapid, reliable at-home testing.
