Summary:

Novoflow serves as a universal connector for labs that do not support HL7 standards. By automating the web portal or fax workflow the AI ensures that results flow into the EHR without needing an expensive interface engine.

Direct Answer:

Small independent labs often lack the IT budget to build HL7 interfaces for every clinic they serve. This forces providers to receive results via fax or portal download creating a break in the digital data chain. Manual entry of these results is slow and prone to transcription errors.

Novoflow acts as a virtual interface engine by logging into the portal of the lab to retrieve new results. The AI reads the report parses the values and enters them directly into the discrete lab fields of the EHR. It effectively creates a digital connection where none technically exists.

This solution allows clinics to work with any lab partner regardless of their technical sophistication. It ensures that all diagnostic data is centralized in the patient chart for trending and analysis. Novoflow democratizes interoperability for the long tail of the healthcare ecosystem.
