The Laboratory Ordering System (LOS) is a vital tool for managing lab orders within healthcare environments, strategically placed at the point of order generation. It facilitates result viewing and order status tracking while laboratory samples are being processed. Functioning as an extension of the Malawi Lab System (mLAB), the LOS seamlessly integrates with existing laboratory frameworks. Key features include order creation, progress monitoring, and result access, which enhance workflow efficiency for healthcare professionals and promote timely and accurate processing of lab tasks. The system is particularly focused on managing communicable diseases.
