LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 20, 2024--

Following nearly 30 years as the leader in lab quality management, MediaLab today announced its rebrand to Vastian, representing the company’s evolution to extend beyond the lab to serve all quality and accreditation needs of hospitals and health systems. Vastian offers the industry’s only integrated, configurable solution that empowers healthcare quality leaders to simplify and accelerate all quality, compliance, and accreditation initiatives and meet all standards.

Vastian's expansion into the hospital market brings the same level of quality, precision, centralization, and collaboration that its lab customers have known across the entire hospital and health system. With this rebrand, MediaLab, now known as MediaLab by Vastian, will continue to deliver the same experience to the more than 5,000 labs worldwide that use the integrated technology to elevate their quality and accreditation processes.

“MediaLab’s rebrand to Vastian reflects our unwavering commitment to helping healthcare quality leaders show their higher standards in the lab and across all departments of the hospital,” said Tom Ormondroyd, CEO of Vastian. “Drawing from MediaLab’s deep experience in revolutionizing the laboratory quality business, Vastian is designed to deliver this same impactful change in hospital settings, through one digital platform that transforms quality departments to be more agile, streamlined, and effective.”

As part of its expansion, Vastian appointed Michelle Hilburn, MSN, RN, CPHQ, CPPS as its AVP, Quality, Compliance and Standards. Michelle brings more than 20 years of experience in quality and acute care in some of the largest health systems in the U.S. Michelle will oversee Vastian’s hospital and health systems solutions to ensure they are serving the needs of the entire hospital staff while meeting regulatory requirements and accreditation standards.
