Improving Lupus Testing Accuracy: New Protocol Launching October 10, 2025
Effective October 10, 2025, Corewell Health Reference Laboratory West will implement an updated protocol for the Lupus Screen (LAB478). This change is designed to improve diagnostic accuracy for patients undergoing anticoagulant therapy, where false-positive or false-negative results can complicate clinical decision-making.
Effective January 17, 2024, UFH Anti-IIa testing will be performed at both Corewell Health Reference Laboratory West and Blodgett Immediate Response Laboratory in Grand Rapids.
