SPECIAL ETHICS

Taking into account the ongoing changes in the society, we spare no effort in promoting modern centralized laboratory diagnostics, evidence-based medicine and ethical and responsible business practices.

Evidence-based medicine principle

In its relations with customers, INVITRO follows the rules of evidence-based medicine – medical practices approach where decisions on prophylactic, diagnostic and curative measures are taken according to proven effectiveness and safety. This approach is shared by the majority of medical societies. It forms a basis for medical aid standards used by doctors globally in the interest of their patients.

INVITRO does not impose unnecessary services

INVITRO policy includes the requirement of clinical purity. Company’s range of services excludes lab tests of no diagnostic or clinical importance and tests for which no reliable test systems are available, allowing required accuracy and verity of results. In other words, INVITRO follows the best clinical practices, performing the most useful and informative diagnostic tests. INVITRO knowingly and deliberately refuses to render useless services even if the demand and price are high.

INVITRO does not make money on patients’ fears and concerns

We do not profit on patients’ fears, concerns, and lack of information: performing tests, results of which should be interpreted by a doctor only (e.g., tumor marker tests), INVITRO acts exclusively as a tester. The company does not stage marketing events (campaigns, advertising) to promote such tests. Oncoscreening is just a part of a complex testing, we in INVITRO are sure that tumor marker blood tests should be ordered by an oncologist.

Strict confidentiality

INVITRO adheres to medical ethics rules as regards medical secrecy, including the patient’s private data. We cherish the trust of our patients and spare no effort in keeping their personal data under reliable protection. INVITRO specialists have developed and implemented modern hardware and software security means. The company has adopted personal data processing protocols and regulations.

Flawless business ethics

The fundamental principle of conducting business in INVITRO is compliance with norms and principles of business ethics in respect of all parties concerned. In its relations with corporate customers, partners, franchisees, suppliers INVITRO follows the principles of openness for cooperation and unconditional fulfillment of its obligations.
