Webinar: Laboratory Information System (LIS) Essentials: Drive Higher Case Throughput to Meet COVID-19 Demand Without Increasing Headcount

COVID-19 has dramatically impacted laboratory volumes and lab leaders have had to figure out how to meet these volume demands. Meanwhile, physicians, pathologists, and laboratory technicians rely on laboratory information systems to manage their workload. However, they are often still tied to and constrained by their keyboard when documenting sample descriptions, observations, test findings, and diagnoses. Laboratories and pathology practices need advanced LIS capabilities such as accurate speech recognition to help pathologists more easily review slides and input diagnoses into an LIS hands-free.

XiFin Inc. and Dolbey and Company held a complimentary live webinar titled, “Laboratory Information System (LIS) Essentials: Drive Higher Case Throughput to Meet COVID-19 Demand Without Increasing Headcount,” in which they discussed how they are working together to better meet the current needs of high-complexity, high-volume laboratories. XiFin Inc. and Dolbey and Company provided an overview of how LIS capabilities such as configurable worklists, batch resulting, and integrated speech recognition can drive higher case throughput per full-time equivalent (FTE) in the lab.

Who should view this presentation?
Laboratory executives, CIOs, medical and laboratory directors, laboratory administrators and managers, as well as pathologists, including pathology practice managers.

During this webinar, participants will learn:

• How much COVID-19 has impacted laboratory volume
• Key LIS capabilities needed by high-complexity, high-volume laboratories
• How to handle increased volumes due to COVID-19 testing without needing more staff
• The value of an LIS integrated with purpose-built speech recognition capabilities
• How XiFin LIS and Dolbey Fusion Narrate® powered by nVoq™ breaks pathologists and lab techs free from the keyboard
