Avalon Healthcare Solutions, LLC, DBA Avalon Healthcare Solutions, is pleased to announce a new relationship to provide laboratory benefits management to SelectHealth on September 22, 2021.
Lab testing is the gateway to appropriate diagnosis and treatment plans, and there are more than 13 billion lab tests performed annually in the U.S. Those results influence 70% of all medical decisions. Lab testing is highly complex and constantly evolving, creating challenges for health plans to navigate.

Avalon and SelectHealth are focused on using the latest technology, evidence-based medicine, and provider education to ensure appropriate high-quality, cost-effective laboratory services to drive care for SelectHealth members.
We are pleased to work with SelectHealth and bring our proven history of management, as well as our innovative approach to unlocking new insights, said Dr. Bill Kerr, Chief Executive Officer at Avalon. SelectHealths focus on improving the health and well-being of its members and communities is perfectly aligned with Avalon’s mission to help our customers enable value-driven care in this dynamic and increasingly challenging environment.
We are excited to work with Avalon to help ensure evidence-based laboratory testing.
