Allentown & Hartford, CT (PRWEB) September 2003 -- Health Network Laboratories, a Pennsylvania-based regional integrated laboratory system, and Rhodes Group, Inc., a leading Connecticut-based laboratory management & IT consulting firm, announce the implementation of Fast OrdersTM, Rhodes Group’s revolutionary front-end order entry solution in Health Network Laboratories’ Patient Service Centers.

“Fast Orders is an innovative and comprehensive HIPAA, MSP, and ABN compliant front-end order entry solution for laboratories, patient care centers, and physician office groups,” says Sam Merkouriou, Rhodes Group’s chief executive officer. “Uniquely engineered as a powerful, complete, and truly versatile interfaced client order entry system, Fast Orders provides revenue enhancing capabilities, error rate reduction, and minimizes multiple entry steps by providing ‘single screen order entry’ and ‘single screen registration’ user interfaces.”

“The ability to collect all patient demographic, insurance and order information within 2 screens is tremendous,” says Jane Erdman, Health Network Laboratories’ chief information officer. “Fast Orders has greatly improved our registration process in its presentation of data in a concise, readable, and complete format. The incorporation of ABN generation at the point of patient registration has improved that process as well.”

“Fast Orders provides complete integrated access to both laboratory and hospital information systems, offering significant benefits and advantages to our clients,” says Sebastian Leonardi, director of business development for the Rhodes Group. “Integrated Results reporting, laboratory and pathology order entry, insurance data entry-edit masking, built-in standing orders capability, and user specified customizable entry options, are several of Fast Orders’ inherent benefits and exclusive features.”
