QuestCAN: Supporting Our Volunteers in their Communities Ever since there has been a Quest Diagnostics there have been colleagues making a difference in the communities where we work and live. To support those efforts, we have launched the Quest Community Action Network or QuestCAN. QuestCAN empowers chapters around the country with support, guidance and tools to partner with nonprofits that align to our business and support employee passions. Additionally QuestCAN leaders will help to promote our Matching Gifts and Dollars for Doers programs so employees can double their donations to eligible organizations and earn additional funding for the organizations they volunteer with. “So many of our colleagues have a true passion for helping and giving back in their communities and show it through their volunteer efforts,” said Mike Prevoznik, Quest SVP and General Counsel. “The changes we have made with the launch of QuestCAN will help us add value to those communities as well as boost Quest’s own company-wide efforts to build value and promote a healthier world."

The College of American Pathologists (CAP), a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)-approved accreditation authority, awarded the company’s advanced clinical laboratory in San Juan Capistrano, California, ISO15189 accreditation.
