Find the latest on Lab Reporting Systems in the January 2010 issue of Renal Business Today. RenaLab is featured in the article, “What to Look for in a Lab Reporting System”. The article focuses on the importance of lab systems within the healthcare industry due to the extensive amount of data kept on each patient, especially when it comes to end-stage renal disease patients. These specific patients tend to get many tests each month, which is why a quality laboratory reporting system is vital. Mike Burney, CEO of RenaLab, participated in the article, and talked about the importance of choosing the right company and system to work with as today’s systems do so much of the work for the center. RenaLab recently launched Insight, a reporting system that allows clinicians the ability to generate lab reports quickly and efficiently, allowing them more time to focus on their patients.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A LAB REPORTING SYSTEM
It’s no secret that healthcare is data intensive, especially among dialysis patients. Over the past few decades, laboratory companies focusing solely on end-stage renal disease patients have emerged as pivotal data centers that can help dialysis clinics become more efficient in how they care for patients. A quality reporting system is the linchpin that helps clinics achieve this….

Welcome to the RenaLab blog. RenaLab is committed to keeping our centers and all renal care professionals up to date on our industry. As part of this commitment we have created this blog to not only discuss important topics such as bundling and its effects on our industry, but also what we are doing to help you provide fast and efficient care to your patients. Over the upcoming weeks and months, we hope you will visit the RenaLab blog and utilize this as an open communication tool, and a source for information.

The primary goal for a dialysis center is to provide the best care possible to its patients. In order to help you efficiently track what is going on within your center, our team worked together to make great enhancements to our reporting tool and has created RenaLab Insight™.  RenaLab Insight™ was built to generate lab reports in a quick and efficient manner. Clinicians shouldn’t have to wait for results or reports, and with a well-designed reporting system, clinicians can save valuable time.  Testing practices unique to the nephrology community provide specialty laboratories with the opportunity to create robust reporting systems that can sort data in a number of ways.  One of the most important features is the ability to “roll-up” all patient laboratory data for evaluation from a quality outcomes standpoint.  This type of measuring tool streamlines the clinician’s task of assessing overall progress towards reaching quality goals. In addition, functionality within the system supports easy data sorting and tabbed reporting for maintaining multiple open reports at one time.

We want to hear from you! Give us your feedback on our blog or through RenaLab Insight™, as it has a built in mechanism for communicating suggestions and comments back to the development team.
