FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sensiva Health Unveils Siemens Atellica System to Enhance Same-Day Blood Testing for Customers Nationwide.
St. Rose, LA – March 20, 2025 – Sensiva Health, a leader in innovative laboratory diagnostics through its Cormeum Lab Services division, is thrilled to announce the full operational launch of the Siemens Atellica system at its state-of-the-art facility in St. Rose, Louisiana. This advanced technology marks a significant milestone in Sensiva Health’s mission to provide rapid, reliable, and high-quality blood testing services to senior living facilities, home health care providers, wound care specialists, and specialty outpatient groups across the United States, delivering same-day results that empower timely and informed patient care decisions.
The Siemens Atellica system, renowned for its cutting-edge automation and scalability, is a transformative addition to Sensiva Health’s diagnostic capabilities. With the ability to process up to 440 tests per hour, the Atellica system features patented bi-directional magnetic sample transport technology that is 10 times faster than conventional conveyors, ensuring unparalleled efficiency in sample management. This allows Sensiva Health to handle high volumes of blood samples with precision and speed, supporting its same-day blood offering for clients nationwide. The system’s flexibility, with over 300 customizable configurations, and its ability to process more than 30 different sample container types, including pediatric samples, ensures comprehensive testing for diverse patient populations.
“The Siemens Atellica system is a game-changer for Sensiva Health, enabling us to deliver same-day blood testing results to our healthcare partners,” said Ben Williamson, CEO of Sensiva Health. “This technology not only enhances our ability to provide rapid insights but also complements our Molecular Infectious Disease and SHIELD programs, creating a holistic approach to diagnostics that addresses the unique needs of our clients.”
The Atellica system seamlessly integrates with Sensiva Health’s Molecular Infectious Disease program, which offers advanced testing to identify infections and antibiotic resistance, a critical need for clients managing complex patient care. By combining rapid blood testing with molecular diagnostics, Sensiva Health provides a comprehensive solution for infection management, helping to prevent complications in vulnerable populations. Additionally, the Atellica system enhances Sensiva Health’s SHIELD program, a proactive infection prevention initiative designed to protect those in specialized care settings. The SHIELD program leverages advanced pathogen detection, environmental monitoring, and personalized support to reduce infection risks, and the Atellica system’s high-throughput blood testing capabilities provide an additional layer of diagnostic data to support these efforts, ensuring early intervention and improved outcomes.
To support its growing national footprint, Sensiva Health is expanding its logistics network through a strengthened partnership with UPS Healthcare, creating a robust infrastructure for sample collection and delivery. The company is also building a growing network of vetted phlebotomists to ensure seamless blood draws for clients across the country. Furthermore, Sensiva Health is developing innovative solutions to make blood shipments stable, conducting extensive testing to ensure sample integrity during transit, even under challenging conditions.
“Our partnership with UPS Healthcare, combined with our expanding network of vetted phlebotomists and rigorous testing for blood shipment stability, allows us to deliver unparalleled service to our clients nationwide,” said Donovan Blakney, VP of Operations at Sensiva Health. “We’re creating a logistics network that ensures samples arrive in optimal condition, enabling us to maintain our same-day blood testing promise no matter where our clients are located.”
Sensiva Health’s same-day blood offering, powered by the Atellica system, provides critical diagnostic insights within hours, not days, ensuring that healthcare partners can address patient needs swiftly and effectively. Sensiva Health remains steadfast in its commitment to compliance, adhering to all federal and Louisiana state regulations, including those set by CMS, CLIA, HIPAA, and the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners (LSBME). The integration of the Atellica system further strengthens this commitment by streamlining workflows, reducing manual errors, and ensuring consistent, high-quality results for every patient sample.
