IMS comes with a powerful, built-in lab tracking module that makes it easy to retrieve patient lab results. Results are received by doctors or staff electronically and can quickly be uploaded to the system to be used in related modules. It saves a lot of time as each lab order can be entered into a patient's electronic medical record with a single click of a mouse.The built-in lab order can be set to print and send automatic faxes, saving time and increasing accuracy. Lab results that are electronically faxed are automatically entered into a patient's chart so that time does not have to be spent matching a paper document with a patient charts. It is all done electronically in a matter of seconds.
Lab results are not only sent into the a patient's electronic health record, but results are also electronically sent to the healthcare professional who ordered the lab.
