Dashboard organization

At the top of the dashboard, you’ll find four tabs to group orders by status:

  • All orders: Shows all lab orders regardless of current test status. 
  • Not purchased: Shows lab orders that haven’t been purchased yet.
  • Results available: Shows labs that have received partial or full results.
  • Action needed: Shows orders that may require action from a member of your team.
Use the filters at the top of your dashboard to quickly view orders by category.

You can filter the list further using the Practitioner, Status, and Sort by dropdown menus.

  • Practitioner: To filter the list of lab orders to select a specific provider or choose All to view all labs. 
  • Status: To filter lab orders based on specific processing stages (Purchased, Delivered, Processing at lab, etc).

Invite your staff members to your Fullscript account to view and manage lab ordering for your practice

Searching for a patient

Use the search box to enter your patient’s name or email to immediately access any lab orders associated with them on Fullscript. 

Note:

Lab orders are shown by the individual test in the dashboard. If you’ve ordered multiple tests in the same order, you’ll see those separated so you can track the status of each one more easily.

Click the icon next to the patient’s name to expand the view and see all biomarkers associated with that patient’s test.

Viewing details about a patient’s order

Use the View details button in the right-hand column of the dashboard to open the Test details page. This page shows the test status history, requisition form, test results, and testing instructions.

Patients automatically receive their testing instructions and requisition form. Before the patient completes their purchase, you can resend these from Links and Documents on the Test details page.

Note:

If you encounter a specimen issue with a lab order, learn more about next steps in Resolving lab specimen issues.
