Outsourced Test Tracking for Pathology Labs

Most labs send some special tests to a larger reference lab. This module tracks each one from dispatch to result. Hormone, genetic and allergy panels often leave the building, yet the patient still expects one report from the lab that took the sample.

What is recorded

Reference lab

Which lab the sample went to, chosen from the lab’s list of partners.

Date sent and expected

When the sample left and when the result is due, based on that test’s usual time.

Courier or runner

How the sample travelled, with any docket number.

Result received

The result is attached or typed in, then goes through sign-off like any other test.

Overdue tests

Tests past their expected date show on an overdue list. The desk sees the date. Staff can follow up with the reference lab before the patient calls. Costs payable to each reference lab can be listed by month.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it connect to the reference lab’s system?

Not on its own. A link is possible only where the reference lab offers one, and it is scoped separately.

Whose letterhead goes on an outsourced result?

That is the lab’s decision, along with how the outsourced test is shown on the report.
