MUHC associate director of procurement Hamadi Bahri said: “Since the MUHC’s procurement department is responsible for acquiring equipment, supplies and services for all sites in the OPTILAB cluster, our contribution has a direct and multiplier effect on improving the service offer of several Quebec healthcare establishments at the same time.”

OPTILAB-CUSM medical director Alan Spatz said: “The inauguration of this new biochemistry platform marks a major milestone in the improvement of health care and medical research, and highlights several strengths of the OPTILAB-CUSM: the importance given not only to automation but also to the recruitment of specialised personnel, the synergy between the various OPTILAB-CUSM sites, the successful co-management of the medical and clinical-administrative departments, and the competence and dedication of our teams.”
