Operations
AccelPath
We are a technology solutions company providing services that play a key role in the delivery of information for diagnosis of diseases and other pathologic conditions with and through our associated pathologists and strategic alliances. The experienced pathologists and medical institutions with which we partner to manage slide and information delivery prepare comprehensive diagnostic reports of a patients condition and consult with referring physicians to help determine the appropriate treatment. Such diagnostic reports often enable the early detection of disease, allowing referring physicians to make informed and timely treatment decisions that improve their patients health in a cost-effective manner. We seek out referring physicians and histology laboratories in need of pathology interpretations for our associated pathologists and manage slide delivery and develop services for managing the information.
We are focused on providing technology solutions for the anatomic pathology market. Our business model builds upon the expertise of experienced pathologists to provide seamless, reliable and comprehensive pathology and special test offerings to referring physicians using conventional and digital technologies. The pathologists with whom we contract seek to establish long-standing relationships with the referring physicians as a result of focused delivery of our diagnostic services, personalized responses and frequent consultations, and flexible information technology, or IT, solutions that are customizable to the referring physicians or laboratories as well as the pathologists needs. Our IT and communications platform enables us to deliver diagnostic reports to referring physicians generally within 24 hours of slide receipt, helping to improve patient care. In addition, our IT platform enables us to closely track and monitor medical trends from referring physicians.

For voting interest entities, the Company is considered to hold a controlling financial interest when the Company is able to exercise control over the investees operating and financial decisions. For variable interest entities (VIEs), the Company is considered to hold a controlling financial interest when it is determined to be the primary beneficiary. For VIEs, a primary beneficiary is a party that has both: (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact that entity's economic performance, and (2) the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The determination of whether an entity is a VIE is based on the amount and characteristics of the entity's equity.
