Polytech LIS

Polytech is a Robust and Affordable LIS for Any Sized Lab

Comp Pro Med’s Polytech laboratory information system expedites patient record processes, interfaces seamlessly with any application or instrument, automates data collection and reporting – all with zero downtime, and in compliance with state and federal regulations.

Polytech LIS

Polytech Laboratory Information System (LIS)

Comp Pro Med’s laboratory information system is designed to improve your laboratory workflows, ensure patient safety, provide health care providers with the information they need in a timely fashion, simplify the reporting process for laboratory technicians, and increase the profitability of the laboratory.  Polytech LIS expedites patient record processes, interfaces seamlessly with any application or instrument, automates data collection and reporting – all with zero downtime, and all in compliance with state and federal regulations.  Polytech LIS is used in laboratories doing a wide variety of testing, specific applications include:

  • Routine clinical lab testing
  • Toxicology: screening and confirmatory testing
  • Microbiology
  • Pharmacogenomics with complete report functionality included
  • Molecular testing
  • Pathology
  • Cytology
  • Veterinary

Specialized Features and Functions

Medlink™ (Edge Computing)

Polytech LIS is built on Edge Computing, the most advanced system in the industry and used by companies such as Amazon, eBay and Google. Edge Computing optimizes hardware and software applications by bringing computing closer to the source of the data. This minimizes the need for long distance communications between client and server, or cloud applications, which minimizes computing time and bandwidth usage.

  • Creates a failsafe redundant database network that eliminates downtime
  • It is the lowest cost solution in terms of both capital and personnel when compared to Client/Server or SaaS/Cloud models.
  • The system is self-healing. When a down node is back up, all data is fully restored.
  • It is self-distributing. One update on a node automatically distributes to all the other nodes. No running around and installing thick or thin clients on multiple terminals.
  • Edge application services significantly decrease the data volume that must be moved, the consequent traffic, and the distance the data must go, thereby reducing transmission costs, thereby shrinking latency and improving quality of service.
  • Improved security compared to client/server or SaaS/Cloud.

Instrument and Business Interfaces

Digital interfacing to instruments is vital to increasing lab productivity. Equally important are the interfaces between the LIS and other business systems, such as EMR, EHR, billing, and practice management systems and reference laboratories.  Comp Pro Med has developed hundreds of HL7-compliant direct interfaces for real-time communication within the lab environment and with your clients.

  • No need for third party interface boards, associated middleware, or proprietary computers. Polytech LIS interfaces are built-in to the system ensuring that bi-directional communications are fast and error-free without adding to system cost.
  • HIS, EMR, and Practice Management System interfaces
  • Allows physicians to place lab orders and view results directly in their EMR, HIS, Practice Management System, or through our web portal.
  • Reduces billing errors and saves your lab time and resources

Web Portal

Share data digitally with remote clinics or other satellite stations such as nurse stations, remote draw stations, and specialty testing facilities. The Polytech Web Portal ensures that your test information and patient records are communicated efficiently and accurately by allowing your remote clients to connect to the lab. Clients can place orders, view results, and print reports through a secure remote internet connection to your laboratory. The Web Portal capabilities include:

  • Remote order entry
  • Remote bar code printing
  • Remote results access
  • Remote results printing
  • Satellite clinic access
  • Departmental lab access
  • Reference lab client access

Reference Laboratory Interfaces

Polytech enables you to place orders and receive results directly through an interface to your preferred reference lab. This allows you to speed up your laboratory process, eliminate the need to use separate systems, and help to ensure your reference laboratory results are available immediately.

  • HIS, EMR, and Practice Management System interfaces
  • Fully bi-directional HL7 interfaces for connection to remote computer systems
  • Allows physicians to place lab orders and view results directly in their EMR, HIS, or Practice Management System
  • Reduces billing errors and saves your lab time and resources
We’d love to show you how our Polytech LIS can help your lab with a robust, affordable, user-friendly system that never goes down.
