The pilot program

A focused pilot you can measure.

Start with one form at one site, using your paper and fax volume only. Agree on the measures before anything begins, so the decision to expand rests on your numbers rather than our claims.

What the pilot looks like

Small by design and easy to stop.

  • One form that you choose, such as a pathology or molecular panel.
  • One site, on a timeline that suits you, using paper and fax only.
  • A test connection first, so nothing reaches your live interface until it is proven.
  • Synthetic data to start, with a signed agreement before any real data is processed.

Measures agreed first

  • Share of orders completed without correction
  • Review time compared with keying time
  • Reduction in holds and callbacks
  • Quality evidence prepared for review

If the measures are not met against your baseline, you stop. That is the point of a focused pilot.

To begin

What we need from you.

Five inputs let us start. While they are being gathered, we build to the standard order record and connect once your specification arrives. We do not guess at a specification.

01

Baseline numbers

Volume, keying time per form, and your current rate of holds and callbacks.

02

LIS connection details

Message type, routing identifiers, and the patient identifier namespace for your LIS.

03

Test list

Form codes mapped to orderable codes, panel contents, and any required questions.

04

Delivery endpoint

Transport, credentials, and acknowledgement behavior, tested against a test endpoint first.

05

Signed agreement

A Business Associate Agreement, with any subcontractor agreements, before any real data is processed. Hosting region and data residency requirements are captured at the same time.

Common questions

Before you ask.

Will this replace our accessioning staff?
No. Nexession removes the routine keying so trained staff can spend time on laboratory work, and it lets the lab handle more volume without adding people. Most labs reassign staff rather than reduce them, and you decide how the savings are used.
Do our referring providers have to change anything?
No. There is no new portal and no change for the referring practice. Existing electronic ordering and the connection from the LIS to billing stay the same.
Can we trust automation on a medical order?
An order is never submitted on its own. A person confirms patient identity and every machine-read order detail, and the check is enforced on the server. Diagnosis, test, and provider codes are copied from the form rather than inferred. Every value can be traced back to the source image.
How is this different from the scanning our LIS already has?
General optical character recognition is not accurate enough to submit without a person, so a reviewer is needed either way. Nexession is built around that fact, with classical checkbox reading, transcription only for order content, grading by confidence, a record of where each value came from, and quality evidence that a basic scanner does not produce.
What does the connection involve?
A standard HL7 order over your chosen transport, with acknowledgement tracking, built to your specification and tested against a test endpoint first. It works with common interface engines.
How long does a pilot take?
The timeline depends on how quickly the five inputs are ready. The pilot itself is deliberately narrow, so it can be set up and evaluated quickly.
