Connectivity:
Success in POCT
Excerpt from
"Stuck in the Middleware
- Labs Look for Answers as New
Consortium Aims to Untangle the Mess"
by Deborah Levenson, May 2008,
Clinical Laoratory News
MAS complies with the CLSI’s connectivity standard, easing the transfer of
data in institutions with labs that use RALS systems Connectivity enabled by the standard and compliant
systems not only improves patient care, but also
eases billing and compliance documentation.
With the
forthcoming IICC standard, core labs may one day
enjoy the sort of connectivity POC users and lab
staff at Carolinas Medical Center-NorthEast in
Concord, N.C. now have. With the aid of her RALS-Plus
system from Medical Automation Systems and its
ability to connect to Roche Accuchek Inform glucose
meters, Laboratory Education and POC Coordinator Deb
Norkett, MT, ASCP has seen marked improvements in
compliance and billing. She interfaces all manual
tests through the Accucheck, which also allows her
to enter pregnancy test results.
After taking
advantage of that function, she now achieves a 100%
billing rate, while in the past she grappled with a
15% deficit in billing because of lack of
documentation in the emergency room. “Before using RALS, we couldn’t capture figures on the volume of
certain manual tests, so they were built into the
room charge,” she recalled.
