Lab Interface: Overview

  • Updated

Kipu’s powerful lab and analyzer interfaces allow you to send orders and receive toxicology and/or clinical lab results directly into the patient chart, saving your facility countless hours and effort spent filling out paper requisitions, reviewing, and scanning paper reports, or logging on to a separate portal to place orders and download results.

Orders are placed directly in the patient chart, generating electronic requisitions. All information required is sent electronically from KIPU to the Lab, without the need for additional paperwork or portal data entry.

Reports can be easily located, and tests are highlighted to show any positive results and/or inconsistencies for easy review.

Labs Setup

  • Konnector: View the list of labs connected to your Kipu Interface. 
  • Statements of Medical Necessity: Create standardized statements of medical necessity to provide the rationale for toxicology and clinical lab orders. 
  • Lab Order Frequency: Set order frequencies based on intervals (e.g., every 3 days), occurrence (e.g, each Monday), or as needed. 
  • Medical Test Profiles: Create custom lab test profiles for Toxicology, Clinical (bloodwork), Pharmacogenetics, and Hair Segmentation Lab tests.
  • Users: Assign permissions for users who are authorized to manage lab orders, lab requisitions, and review lab results.
