Reference Lab
Interfacing

Managing reference lab compendiums and workflows can be complex and time consuming. JTG manages the process and configurations necessary for proper integration with your reference lab(s). Our services reduce the risk of errors, ensure compatibility, and timely and accurate results for your providers and patients.

Middleware

JTG configures middleware solutions to centrally manage instrument and EHR/LIS connectivity, ensuring seamless data flow and operational efficiency. Once interfaced, many middleware solutions allow for the creation of specific rules that improve workflows, enable autoverification, monitor QC, and track analyte trends over time. This integration enhances productivity and reduces the risk of errors, allowing your staff to focus on critical tasks.

Integrating POC instruments with your EHR/LIS/Middleware eliminates manual data entry, allowing your caregivers to focus on patient care. Integrating POC devices enhances positive patient ID, automates the reporting process, and ensures timely and reliable results for better patient outcomes.
