This means that they are not owned by a hospital, reference lab, or other entity that might compromise their independence and integrity. The IPPN is dedicated to maintaining the high standards of patient care and clinical excellence that independent pathology groups are known for. The IPPN also aims to foster a community of like-minded professionals who can share expertise, business acumen, and information technology.
