So I guess, Steve, that means when negotiating contracts to have a refund for all incomplete packs to the tune of the number of unavailable tests.

Subject: blood gas failed reagent packs

 

Hello

We have a local problem at the moment with blood gas reagent packs failing prematurely for certain analytes. There of course is a large cost, hidden or otherwise, for our POCT team in managing premature reagent pack failures, and the potential for clinical impact if equipment is suddenly unavailable.
