It’s a famous laboratory operating in many locations in California. The laboratory gained all the attention at the time of the Covid-19 pandemic where it processed reports at a speedy rate. With the diverse range of services, the client covers more than 20K patients across California. It is currently planning to spread to other regions apart from California. Over the years, the laboratory included many services and incorporated all super-specialty features.
Immediate Needs of the Laboratory
During the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the workload for the Laboratory excessively increased. The laboratory was delivering nearly 10K COVID reports daily as the tests have been increased. In that situation, the laboratory searching for a partner who could provide medical data entry services to release pressure. Therefore, they approached AskDataEntry for solutions to handle the tough times with quality data entry services.
Importance of Medical Data Entry Services for Test Laboratories
Laboratories that conduct medical tests are always dependent on efficient data entry solutions. In most cases, the in-house staff maintains all the records and performs necessary data entry tasks. However, with an increase in work volume, the need for additional help for medical data entry becomes essential. Outsourcing is one the most efficient and cost-efficient solutions that help laboratories maintain all records efficiently.
Laboratories conduct simultaneous tests and record results immediately for medical purposes. Therefore, having an efficient medical data entry process can help laboratories access and retrieve data easily. Also, it will help in storing all medical information and processing the billing information. Moreover, laboratories can perform their core functions if they delegate the medical data entry tasks to any professional outsourcing company. Professional outsourcing companies will apply the right methods and techniques to perform the data entry tasks efficiently.
Challenges the Laboratory Encountered
During the pandemic period, the lab has performed its best by delivering accurate test results. Within a brief span of time, the lab managed to increase its regular delivery volume. However, it faced some major challenges from its team in delivering the test results on time. Here are the challenges that it faced during the pandemic period;
The lab’s team had to conduct tests for more than 10,000 patients each day. Also, they had to deliver the test results on the same day. Managing the pressure of 10,000 data volumes each day is a huge task to proceed with. The lab’s team faced the burden of work by delivering the best results on the same day. On top of that, the number of staff was also less at that time because the pandemic had limited everything. Therefore, the lab wanted to delegate the entire process to any expert professional to deal with that situation.
Besides generating reports via software, the lab team had to perform some manual operations. Manual operation includes filling up the patients’ details, test details, payment details, and others. Entering all these records in the system took many hours to finish and that caused delays in processing files. Therefore, the lab needed an efficient partner who could provide amazing solutions to handle the situation efficiently.
