TestDirectly provides an easily accessible platform that enables the patient to self-register and schedule testing from any PC, tablet, or mobile device. This replaces paper forms and starts the electronic workflow that greatly reduces the potential for data entry errors and positions the lab to scale up testing capacity. By removing paper the whole process becomes touch-free, reducing the risk of possible contamination for both the patient and laboratory and testing site personnel.
The manual order entry bottleneck is a major problem for labs once the testing volume goes above 500 specimens a day. The only way to truly scale-up capacity in an efficient way is to replace the paper requisitions with an electronic workflow that starts with patient self-registration and continues to support the complete life-cycle of the case and the specimen.
