Laboratory Results Upload
Issue to
A healthcare entity faced a significant challenge in its laboratory management process. The task involved extracting crucial information from the analyses conducted on patients. This included accessing the list of analyses for each patient, navigating the complex laboratory management application, and meticulously extracting the results of each test. Subsequently, this information needed to be unified with the respective medical histories of the patients. This manual process was not only labor-intensive but also prone to human errors.
Solution
The solution adopted to address this challenge involved the complete automation of the “Laboratory Results Upload” process. Through this automation, the results of the analyses were automatically downloaded directly from the Salud Total portal. These results were then accurately entered into the healthcare entity’s database. Furthermore, a daily link was established between these results and the patients’ medical histories. This automation not only improved efficiency but also minimized human errors.
Results
The implementation of this solution yielded a series of highly beneficial outcomes:
- The process ran consistently on a daily basis, ensuring real-time updates of laboratory results.
- Reports were automatically generated, providing a clear and detailed view of the data for better tracking and control.
-
Patient medical histories were constantly updated with paraclinical results.
Screening information was available in real-time, enhancing medical attention and diagnostic capabilities.
This automation not only improved efficiency in the healthcare entity’s laboratory management but also elevated the quality of medical care by providing up-to-date and accurate information in real-time for patient diagnosis and treatment.
