Order Tests & Receive Results

  • DLO offers several ways for your practice to order laboratory testing and receive results. Choose the solution that best fits your workflow—from electronic ordering through your existing EMR or LIS to Quanum® Lab Services or a traditional DLO paper requisition.

    Ordering Laboratory Tests

    Electronic Ordering Through Your EMR or LIS

    Connect your practice's electronic medical record (EMR) or laboratory information system (LIS) directly with DLO for streamlined test ordering and result reporting. DLO's Connectivity Team supports interface implementation, test dictionary mapping, system configuration and ongoing technical support.

    DLO partners with more than 600 EMR and LIS applications and can help identify the connectivity solution that best fits your practice or facility.

    EMR/EHR Interface

    DLO can interface laboratory results directly with your electronic health record (EHR), allowing results to become part of the patient's existing clinical record and reducing manual data entry.

    Our Connectivity Team can assist with interface setup, implementation and ongoing technical support.

    Faxed Results

    DLO can provide results by fax when requested. A signed agreement must be in place before faxed results can be released. Contact your DLO Account Executive to establish faxed result delivery.

    Priority & Critical Result Reporting

    DLO has established procedures for communicating priority and critical laboratory results to the healthcare professionals responsible for patient care. Providers should ensure DLO has reliable 24-hour contact information for STAT and priority reporting.
