Change Healthcare臨牀網絡通過全國最大的實驗室網絡之一擴展了測試訂購，並增加了家庭測試
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(納斯達克股票代碼：CHNG)宣佈，該公司將提供對其臨牀網絡實驗室服務的開放訪問，提供商可以快速訂購新冠肺炎測試和其他實驗室測試，以幫助加快全國患者的診斷結果。這項新服務通過提供與全國最大的實驗室測試網絡之一的快速連接，幫助提供商確定實驗室選項，以改善獲得測試的機會，並降低訂購實驗室測試的複雜性。
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.
供應商希望方便地進入實驗室進行新冠肺炎測試和其他測試，如果他們沒有電子健康記錄或其他與實驗室的數字連接，這可能是一個挑戰。即使他們確實有這些電子連接，訪問也可能需要付費。這使得提供者識別方便患者的測試地點、提交測試訂單和接收結果的能力變得複雜。然後，負擔可能落在患者身上，他們需要找到最方便的檢測設施，根據處方下實驗室訂單，並收集他們的結果。
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.
這項新的開放式訪問Change Healthcare臨牀網絡服務有助於消除為新冠肺炎以及其他測試訂購實驗室測試的成本和技術複雜性。註冊或使用測試訂購和結果報告服務不收取任何費用，從而消除了財務障礙。這項服務通過幫助供應商識別並從實驗室訂購最適合他們和他們的患者需求的產品，改善了檢測的可及性。
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.
提供者登錄，訂購對患者最合適、最方便的實驗室檢測，並在線檢索檢測結果。供應商可以從全國最大的實驗室網絡之一中選擇實驗室，該網絡擁有1,400多個實驗室檢測點，其中100多個提供新冠肺炎檢測-包括在家和抗體檢測。Change Healthcare臨牀網絡包括領先的商業實驗室、地區和醫院實驗室，現在還包括家庭測試和收集。
“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臨牀網絡高級副總裁費薩爾·穆什塔克(Faisal Mushtaq)説，“一些地區正在努力加強檢測，專家最近指出，只有12個州的檢測水平達到了控制病毒所需的水平。”“提供者需要更多、更好的新冠肺炎檢測和其他檢測的選擇，才能最好地服務於他們的患者。通過Change Healthcare臨牀網絡提供對美國最大的實驗室網絡之一的方便、免費訪問，並加上對家庭測試資源的訪問，供應商可以更好地抗擊這一流行病並促進其它醫療服務，同時減輕患者查找方便和及時的測試的負擔。“
