Change Healthcare临床网络通过全国最大的实验室网络之一扩展了测试订购，并增加了家庭测试
Today Change Healthcare (Nasdaq: CHNG) announced the company is providing open access to its Clinical Network lab service , where providers can quickly order COVID-19 tests and other lab tests, to help speed diagnostic results for patients nationwide. This new service helps providers identify lab options to improve access to testing and reduces the complexity of ordering lab tests by providing rapid connections to one of the nation’s largest lab testing networks.
今天，Change Healthcare(纳斯达克股票代码：CHNG)宣布，该公司将提供对其临床网络实验室服务的开放访问，提供商可以快速订购新冠肺炎测试和其他实验室测试，以帮助加快全国患者的诊断结果。这项新服务通过提供与全国最大的实验室测试网络之一的快速连接，帮助提供商确定实验室选项，以改善获得测试的机会，并降低订购实验室测试的复杂性。
Providers want easy access to labs for COVID-19 tests and other tests, which can be a challenge if they don’t have electronic health record (EHR) or other digital connections to labs. Even if they do have these electronic connections, access can require paying fees. This complicates a provider’s ability to identify testing sites that are convenient for the patient, submit test orders, and receive results. The burden can then fall on the patient to find the most convenient testing facility, place the lab order with a prescription, and collect their results.
供应商希望方便地进入实验室进行新冠肺炎测试和其他测试，如果他们没有电子健康记录或其他与实验室的数字连接，这可能是一个挑战。即使他们确实有这些电子连接，访问也可能需要付费。这使得提供者识别方便患者的测试地点、提交测试订单和接收结果的能力变得复杂。然后，负担可能落在患者身上，他们需要找到最方便的检测设施，根据处方下实验室订单，并收集他们的结果。
This new open access to the Change Healthcare Clinical Network service helps eliminate the cost and technical complexity of ordering lab tests for COVID-19 as well as other tests. There are no fees associated with enrollment in or use of the test ordering and results reporting service, thereby eliminating financial barriers. This service improves access to testing by helping providers identify and order from the lab that’s best suited to their needs and those of their patients.
这项新的开放式访问Change Healthcare临床网络服务有助于消除为新冠肺炎以及其他测试订购实验室测试的成本和技术复杂性。注册或使用测试订购和结果报告服务不收取任何费用，从而消除了财务障碍。这项服务通过帮助供应商识别并从实验室订购最适合他们和他们的患者需求的产品，改善了检测的可及性。
Providers log on, order the lab test that’s most appropriate and convenient for the patient, and retrieve test results online. Providers can choose labs from one of the nation’s largest lab networks, with over 1,400 lab testing sites, of which over more than 100 are providing COVID-19 tests—including at-home and antibody tests. The Change Healthcare Clinical Network includes the leading commercial labs, regional and hospital labs, and now home-testing and collection.
提供者登录，订购对患者最合适、最方便的实验室检测，并在线检索检测结果。供应商可以从全国最大的实验室网络之一中选择实验室，该网络拥有1,400多个实验室检测点，其中100多个提供新冠肺炎检测-包括在家和抗体检测。Change Healthcare临床网络包括领先的商业实验室、地区和医院实验室，现在还包括家庭测试和收集。
“Some regions are struggling to ramp up testing, with experts recently noting that only 12 states are testing at the level considered necessary to rein in the virus,” said Faisal Mushtaq, senior vice president, Clinical Network at Change Healthcare. “Providers need more and better options for COVID-19 tests and other testing to best serve their patients. By providing easy, free access to one of the nation’s largest lab networks through the Change Healthcare Clinical Network, and supplementing this with access to at-home testing resources, providers can better combat the pandemic and facilitate other healthcare services, while relieving patients of the burden of locating convenient and timely testing.”
Change Healthcare临床网络高级副总裁费萨尔·穆什塔克(Faisal Mushtaq)说，“一些地区正在努力加强检测，专家最近指出，只有12个州的检测水平达到了控制病毒所需的水平。”“提供者需要更多、更好的新冠肺炎检测和其他检测的选择，才能最好地服务于他们的患者。通过Change Healthcare临床网络提供对美国最大的实验室网络之一的方便、免费访问，并加上对家庭测试资源的访问，供应商可以更好地抗击这一流行病并促进其它医疗服务，同时减轻患者查找方便和及时的测试的负担。“
