Labs play a critical role in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. Upon patient encounter, healthcare practitioners may recommend lab tests to assess the patient’s condition correctly. If the lab facility is available with the healthcare provider this information needs to be communicated to lab technicians along with patients. Technicians collect the sample as per specifications and conduct the test to come up with the results which are then communicated to healthcare practitioners and patients. ERPNext provides features to automate this via Email and SMS alerts so that patients can proceed with booking further appointments.

ERPNext allows lab test templates to be created so that technicians adhere to the processes and the standards defined.

Let’s see how we can manage lab tests in ERPNext!
