Lucid Diagnostics signs first direct employer contract to provide precancer test

Lucid Diagnostics has contracted with the Ancira Auto Group, auto dealer serving South Texas, to offer EsoGuard esophageal precancer testing to eligible employees across all twelve of its locations in San Antonio and surrounding areas. This represents Lucid’s first such employer contract as part of a direct contracting strategic initiative it launched earlier this year. Pursuant to this three-year contract at a negotiated per-employee rate, Lucid will partner with local physicians to identify Ancira employees who meet professional society guidelines for esophageal precancer testing and perform EsoCheck cell collection at Ancira locations across the San Antonio metropolitan area. EsoGuard analysis of the samples will then be performed at Lucid’s CLIA-certified laboratory in Lake Forest, California. Based on the EsoGuard result, the physician will recommend further monitoring or treatment as indicated by these guidelines.
