Co-locating collection and processing removes the transport variables that can compromise results for time-sensitive assays.
Testing begins as soon as the specimen is collected, so point-of-care results are available during the same visit rather than after a transport and batching cycle.
Integrity is preserved through the full pre-analytical phase under ISO 15189 quality systems, with handling protocols defined for each time-sensitive assay.
Our DAP accredited, ISO 15189 laboratory in Richmond holds the network’s accreditations and quality systems.
Accredited specimen collection and receiving points inside community pharmacies and medical clinics.
Every NovaPoint result carries a quality control programme behind it, a competency-certified operator, and licensed technologist review before release.
An eligible licensed practitioner orders through the NovaLabs platform.
Collected and analyzed at a NovaPoint site by a competency-certified operator.
Technologist review under Medical Director oversight at NovaLab Central.

Every NovaPoint site is a partnership. Our partners serve their communities with the infrastructure they already have; we power the laboratory testing behind it. The model suits any setting where people already attend for care.
Accessible hours, in a setting patients already visit for care and advice.
Family practice and walk-in settings, where results within the visit support the decision being made.
Multidisciplinary centres serving a defined community or population.
Testing brought to residents rather than residents to a laboratory.
