Explanation
The process for submitting a Diagnostic Request begins in EzyVet, with the Clinician filling out a Diagnostic Request Form, with the last step of the form residing in the Diagnostic Lab application.
Once the Request is submitted, a Clinic Technician delivers the Samples to the lab.
At the same time, the Lab Manager(s) / Tech(s) are notified of the Request on the Queue page within the Diagnostic Lab app. Once they receive the Samples, they kick off the Test.
Once the Test completes, the Queue page will notify the Manager / Tech (if the equipment's Result can be auto-imported).
INFO
If the Result appears to be in error, the Test will need to be redone.
If the Result gets approved, and any needed PathologistFindings are recorded, the Request can be finalized. Finalizing a Request attaches the Results to its respective case in EzyVet, and notifies the Clinician via email of the Results.
