Introduction to Clinical Laboratory Software
The clinical lab services market is experiencing rapid growth largely due to advances in genetics/genomics/proteomics technologies over the last decade that have enabled significant discoveries to be made and commercialized into clinical tests. Commercial companies are now emerging offering one or more of these new tests, often in combination with proprietary algorithms to provide useful information for patients.
In order to commercialize these tests, a company will need to track its clinical laboratory workflows from clinical test ordering to order processing to sample processing and results delivery. For US based labs to conform with regulations, the entire process from sample receipt to processing needs to be compliant with CLIA and sometimes CAP regulations as well as FDA Part 11 regulations.
TEST LAB MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE
What Are the Requirements of a Clinical Lab?
Clinical labs have a diverse set of clinical lab management needs that span well beyond what is traditionally thought of as lab management. All or some of the following are often required of a clinical laboratory software solution:
- A CRM for tracking the sales processing from engagement with providers to forecasting and revenue tracking
- An ordering system for physicians to enter test requests, or a method to interface with existing physician systems to receive orders
- A Clinical Lab Order Management System
- Sample Collection Kit Management
- Sample Management/Accessioning
- Lab Workflow Tracking
- Instrument Integrations for Lab Automation
- Assay Data Management
- Patient Report Generation and Delivery
This extent of this list of requirements for clinical lab management software is daunting for a new clinical lab to consider as a thorough implementation of these features would typically require four or more software solutions and years of work. New labs also may need to get CLIA certification and require FDA Part 11 compliance.

This is all done via configuration to automate order validation processes.

The CRM serves the dual purposes of being the primary sales tool for tracking territories, sales teams, providers, opportunities and recurring revenue.
