Online Pathologist Centre: Enhancing Diagnostic Efficiency for Source BioScience
In March 2008, Source BioScience Limited, a leading provider of healthcare, pharmaceutical biotech, and life science research services, engaged The Site Doctor to develop the Online Pathologist Centre. This platform was a critical component of a larger web-based application designed to streamline the coordination between Source BioScience's laboratories and clinicians.
Key Features of the Online Pathologist Centre
- Enhanced Security: Integration of VASCO key fob security tokens ensured that pathologists accessed the system using a unique, randomly generated code in conjunction with their username and password, bolstering data protection.
- Comprehensive Dashboard: A user-friendly interface provided pathologists with an overview of their cases and workload, facilitating efficient task management.
- Staged Authorization Process: Implemented to ensure pathologists could review and approve reports systematically, maintaining high standards of accuracy.
- Interactive Reporting Interface: Enabled reporting on multiple specimens simultaneously, enhancing productivity and user experience.
- Customizable Reports: Allowed pathologists to create and share personalized report templates, promoting consistency and collaboration.
- Advanced Search Functionality: AJAX-powered search capabilities facilitated quick retrieval of diagnoses from the database, saving time and improving efficiency.
- Automated Document Export: Provided real-time export of reports in PDF and Microsoft Word formats, ensuring seamless documentation and record-keeping.
Collaborative Development Approach
We collaborated closely with Source BioScience's internal development team throughout the project. This partnership allowed their team to focus on other critical areas of the system while we concentrated on delivering a robust and user-centric Online Pathologist Centre.
The successful implementation of this platform not only enhanced the efficiency of pathologists in reporting cases but also reinforced Source BioScience's commitment to leveraging technology to improve healthcare services.
