The Company’s ‘Everywhere Care’ business model is premised on the view that testing solutions for many diseases and disorders are needed in both traditional healthcare delivery locations and through remote and at-home access, to truly provide better access in support of total population health. For in-clinic/at-retail locations, the binx io rapid molecular point of care platform offers onsite convenience in a CLIA–waived solution for chlamydia and gonorrhea that can provide testing, diagnosis and treatment in the same visit. For those unable to access in-person testing, binx at-home offers convenience and high-quality access to care through remote sample collection. Through our omnichannel platform, we enable our enterprise customers to service their patient populations, no matter their preference or location.
