Who uses Pathology Tracker?

Pathology Tracker provides a suite of valuable tools that can be utilized by physicians, nurses, office staff, pathology coordinators, hospitals, and labs. The tools can be easily tailored to how each office operates.

What does Pathology Tracker track?

Pathology Tracker tracks each specimen via an RFID label that requires a lab order. Patients who have multiple specimens in one office visit are tracked both individually and collectively which provides the office with easy and quick access to the specimen information. Additionally, Pathology Tracker will track the routing of the specimen from one lab to another.

How can you follow your specimen using Pathology Tracker?

Each specimen is tagged with a unique number which is included on the RFID label that is also tied to the specific patient visit. Specimens with the RFID label are scanned at courier pick up as well when the lab receives them. Once the pathology lab has completed the lab order the results are electronically sent back to Pathology Tracker on each specimen. All who are provided access to Pathology Tracker can follow the specimen at every point throughout the lab order process.
