Prematurity impacts not only mothers and the babies themselves but also their families, healthcare providers, payers, and communities. We developed the PreTRM\u00ae Test to help pregnant women and their physicians understand and take actions to mitigate elevated risks of premature birth, with the important goal of improving the health of mothers and babies and, in so doing, reducing healthcare system costs and burden.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A rigorous health economic analysis published in <i>ClinicoEconomics and Outcomes Research<\/i> (<a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3655846-1&amp;h=28488244&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dovepress.com%2Fcost-effectiveness-of-a-proteomic-test-for-preterm-birth-prediction-peer-reviewed-fulltext-article-CEOR&amp;a=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dovepress.com%2Fcost-effectiveness-of-a-proteomic-test-for-preterm-birth-prediction-peer-reviewed-fulltext-article-CEOR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.dovepress.com\/cost-effectiveness-of-a-proteomic-test-for-preterm-birth-prediction-peer-reviewed-fulltext-article-CEOR<\/a>) in <span class=\"xn-chron\">September 2021<\/span> shows that application of the PreTRM\u00ae strategy, consisting of testing and proactive, evidence-based interventions, improves neonatal outcomes and reduces immediate and long-term treatment costs associated with premature birth when compared to routine care.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Value, not volume, is Banner&#8217;s driving factor, and our providers are rewarded for high-quality results and providing the latest in evidence-based preventive care,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Robert Krauss<\/span>, MD, Medical Director, Banner \u2013 University Health Plans. &#8220;A growing body of evidence supports the potential for the PreTRM\u00ae Test to improve fetal-maternal health outcomes and reduce the costs associated with premature birth. Making this cutting-edge predictive test available to our members advances our goal of improving the health of our member populations overall by providing individualized care that helps each member achieve the highest level of wellness. We are excited to integrate the PreTRM\u00ae Test into our fetal-maternal care protocols.&#8221;\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The PreTRM\u00ae Test was developed and validated for prediction of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) broadly in the U.S. in the Proteomic Assessment of Preterm Risk (PAPR) study. In a subsequent large prospective U.S. study, the Multicenter Assessment of a Spontaneous Preterm Birth Risk Predictor (TREETOP), the biomarkers were further demonstrated to be predictive of very early preterm birth of any cause, length of neonatal hospital stay, and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Additional new data published in <span class=\"xn-chron\">May 2022<\/span> showed improved PreTRM\u00ae Test predictive performance for women whose due dates are more reliably determined by ultrasound.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About Banner Health<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Banner Health is one of the largest, secular nonprofit health care systems in the country.
