Our efforts extend to optimizing diagnostic networks and supporting the development and implementation of national Essential Diagnostics Lists (EDLs). These EDLs are tailored to address national disease burdens, align with existing health infrastructure, and consider available human and financial resources.

Through the Lab Map initiative, we collect and organize data in a structured GIS database, allowing us to overlay laboratory information with disease patterns, population distribution, and other relevant variables. This approach enables us to assess the functionality of testing linkages between laboratories and clinical facilities and evaluate the network’s readiness to respond to testing demands. By leveraging the combined capacity of the network, we ensure testing needs are met efficiently and effectively, anywhere they arise.
