Send a test your lab does not run to a referral lab, mark its report received, enter its results and see what you owe the partner.

Some tests go to an outside laboratory. You send them from the order, the patient still pays your price, and the partner's charge is listed on its statement.

The Send to a partner lab window with the partner, tests and rates

Before you begin

  • The partner lab is added and active, with a rate for each test you send it. See Partner Labs.
  • You need Manage Lab Orders / Workflow, Collect Samples / Phlebotomy or Enter Lab Results.

Where to find it

Open Laboratory → Work → Lab Orders and click the order. The Partner lab box is on the right, under Specimens.

Send tests out

  1. Click Send out in the Partner lab box.
  2. Choose the Partner lab.
  3. Tick the Tests to send. A test with no rate agreed cannot be ticked. A rate above your own price is marked.
  4. Type the Partner's reference (optional), such as their slip number.
  5. Click Send.

The test now shows with partner. It leaves the bench and appears in the With a partner lab column of the Worklist by Section.

When the partner's report comes back

  1. Click Report received under the test. Entering its results also marks it received.
  2. Type the partner's results on the order and save them, as for any test.
  3. Verify and release the report as usual. See Verify and sign out a lab report.

The printed report shows Performed at with the partner's name under that test.

Bring a test back in-house

Click Bring back in-house under the test while it is still with the partner. The test returns to your bench and no cost is counted.

Common questions

The Send out button is missing. No active partner lab exists, every test already has results, or the report is released.

Does the partner's charge post to my accounts? No. The partner's Statement on Partner Labs lists what you owe. Record the payment to the partner in your accounts as usual.

What does the patient pay? Your own catalog price, or the panel price. The partner's rate is your cost.
