Laboratory Management
From test request to signed report — a fully digital pathology workflow.
What is Laboratory Management?
The Laboratory module manages your entire pathology workflow digitally — from the moment a doctor orders a test during a consultation, through sample collection and tracking, result entry against normal reference ranges, and finally the generation of a professional, signed report.
Lab results flow directly into the patient's electronic medical record the moment they are verified. The treating doctor sees the results in the context of the patient's history, with flags for out-of-range values. Lab charges are captured automatically and sent to billing, so finance never misses a charge.
The module handles the full test catalogue — haematology, biochemistry, microbiology, serology, immunology, histopathology and more. Each test has its own reference range configurable by age, gender and patient category.
