Episode 256- Clinical Decision Support at the Point of Care: Advancing Value-Based Care Through Smarter Laboratory Testing

As healthcare continues its transition toward value-based care, clinical decision support (CDS) is becoming an essential tool for improving appropriate utilization while reducing administrative burden. On this episode, guest hosts Dr Sandy Rolfe (Optum, WEDI Genomics Workgroup) and Julie Brown-Georgi (AMA, WEDI’s Value-Based Care Workgroup) interview Rachael Hulshizer from Mayo Clinic and Elizabeth Zobel from CareSelect® Lab to discuss how EHR-integrated, point-of-order CDS is transforming laboratory and genomic test ordering through evidence-based guidance, interoperability standards, and actionable analytics. The conversation explores how structured data, FHIR-enabled exchange, and clinician-centered workflows can help advance stewardship, improve patient care, and support the future of precision medicine
