3EO Health CEO Jeremy Schubert said: “Our healthcare system faces many challenges and is constantly in pursuit of simultaneously improving outcomes while reducing cost.
“Unfortunately, many times the pathways to those goals are in opposition. With this recent authorisation of our new platform and SARS-CoV-2 test, we are pleased to bring to physicians and consumers a technology that no longer places them in the cost versus quality conundrum.”
Compared to existing point-of-care molecular tests, the company’s new technology enables savings of up to 70%.
