Testing for COVID has moved beyond suspected cases and contact tracing to become mandatory for working professionals who are stepping out to work at their respective offices, increasing the pressure to improve delivery times for COVID-19 results.
As we receive heartening news of the progress made by biopharma companies across the world in developing a viable vaccine to counteract the spread of COVID-19, the end of the global pandemic may just finally be in sight. However, as there’s a long road ahead till the final approval and delivery of billions of vaccine doses, we must stay vigilant to control the further spread of the virus right now with effective COVID-19 testing.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is an emerging situation that has disrupted millions of lives here in the US and around the globe.
As the demand for COVID-19 testing continues to rise, it’s creating an additional burden on all testing and diagnostic laboratories to deliver fast and accurate results for the ever-increasing volume of incoming tests.
As states across the country step up COVID-19 testing efforts to effectively combat the further spread of the pandemic, most healthcare operators find themselves struggling to keep up with the increased demand. The number of tests conducted is expected to rise significantly as states follow Florida’s lead in setting up a system of regular testing for at-risk healthcare workers.
A large-scale consumer-centric home and retail healthcare services company reached out to us for assistance with COVID-19 test requisition form processing. Their goal was to provide accurate lab results to their nationwide consumers within 48 hours.
States have responded to the dangers that frontline healthcare workers face in the fight against COVID-19 with a system of rigorous testing aimed at early identification of the COVID-19 virus among nurses, doctors and other healthcare workers. This means a drastic increase in the volume of test requisition forms that need to be processed on a periodic basis.
Any initial skepticism about outsourcing healthcare services has given way to optimism about the positive results outsourcing yields in improving healthcare services. Let’s dive deep and explore the possibilities.
Health is not a matter to be taken lightly and in light of the current situation, accurate testing and diagnosis backed by efficient patient forms processing and test forms processing are more important than ever.
Healthcare data needs to be processed responsibly. Even a tiny error while processing a test requisition form can have serious consequences. As healthcare providers find themselves swamped with processing high-volume COVID-19 testing and providing intensive patient care, they need supportive processing services to streamline operations.
Unless you have been living under the proverbial rock, you have probably heard of the rising trend of outsourcing healthcare services and the increasing debate over whether it is a sustainable solution to the resource shortage in the healthcare industry.
However, the bigger concerns about the fate of outsourcing healthcare services are whether these solutions are scalable or not and how can healthcare services be outsourced without compromising the quality of service?
