Lab Results & Triage
ResultsResults classified normal / abnormal / critical; abnormal and critical hold for sign-off.
Overview
Results arrive classified as normal, abnormal, or critical. Critical and abnormal results are held for clinician sign-off before they're released to the patient portal — normals can flow through per your policy.
The closed loop
- Result — a result is received.
- Classify — normal / abnormal / critical.
- Hold — abnormal and critical results wait for clinician sign-off.
- Release — signed results are released to the patient portal.
The human gate
Abnormal and critical results never reach the patient without a clinician signing off first.
Who acts here
Clinicians review and release held results.
