Pathology EHR/EMR Software
When you run an independent pathology lab you need access to software that helps you improve services for providers and care for patients.
Seamless interoperability & connections to EHR/EMR systems
With AdvancedMD you get a fully integrated pathology system that connects seamlessly to EHR and EMR systems, providing a wide variety of tests and information for patients who require pathology services.
Our software integrations help you create more efficient pathology workflows so you can process multiple tests and work with a high volume of patients who require lab work. The system is completely scalable so you can scale up when demand is high, then back down when demand is low. You won’t need to switch systems to accommodate changes in your pathology volumes or worry whether your existing system can handle the volume. That includes volume surges when we experience unprecedented disease volume, like COVID-19.
Use customizable dashboards to set up quick-access views for your front desk staff, administrators, and employees working in your pathology lab. Create dashboard views for intake, orders, pathology processing, and results reporting. The EHR integrations make it easy to get the information they need to perform their jobs without clicking through multiple screenings or wasting time on unnecessary data entry.
Integration with EHR systems also reduces the risk of errors in your data entry process. Pathology staff who must manually transfer information from faxed orders, or who are processing paper referrals, might inadvertently input the wrong information. This can create errors in your pathology testing process and in the results reporting. It can also slow down your reimbursement when you don’t have accurate information about the patient or the medical necessity of a pathology test.
You can also send customized instructions to patients or providers based on the pathology services they need. These can include things like:
- Fasting instructions to stop eating or drinking at a specific time for some tests
- Consuming specific drinks or medications in advance of pathology services
- Stopping or adjusting medications based on the pathology services a patient needs
- Stopping or adjusting herbal or over-the-counter supplements prior to getting pathology work done
- Transporting samples to and from the lab for things that the patient must take care of at home before they arrive
- Any other physician-specific or test-specific instructions patients need for a smooth pathology lab experience
Better testing capabilities
With AdvancedMD your system is prepared for all types of pathology testing services. You can create new tests and revise existing processes to speed up test results and pathology services within your clinic. As healthcare needs change, and more tests become available, this flexibility is essential to your operations and profitability. Add new revenue streams when new tests become available or scale up quickly when a public health emergency arises.
COVID-19 testing capabilities
With AdvancedMD you can meet the high demand for COVID-19 diagnostic tests, as well as other pathology tests that are necessary for doctors as they care for COVID patients. We provide immediate access to new billing codes as they become available for emerging diseases, including the rapidly changing COVID-19 protocols for testing and billing.
Enhanced reporting & information sharing
Share information with your pathologists, staff, and executive leadership team that can help improve your pathology clinic operations. AdvancedMD reporting capabilities make it easy to pull pertinent data out of your pathology software and spot opportunities for improvement. You can also get full integration with an existing laboratory information management system (LIMS) if you have a preferred system that you are using. Our APIs connect LIMS to your AdvancedMD system to give you the full reporting and data sharing capabilities you would get from a completely integrated system.
Our system is also designed for interoperability and information sharing among different systems. This helps you process pathology orders quickly and provide better service to your physician and hospital partners in the area. With our AdvancedExchange API you can:
- Access patient information from other EHR systems so you always have the most accurate data available when providing pathology services
- Check patient demographics like insurance coverage and view preauthorizations for specific tests, if required
- Identify risks in the patient’s medical history with access to diagnoses, allergy information, current medications, and more in their EHR
- Provide faster results by transferring information directly to the provider’s office electronically to share with their patients via a patient portal
