LigoLab’s Advanced Tier: Unlocking the Full Potential of High-Volume Laboratories
July 2, 2025
In the evolving landscape of medical diagnostics, laboratories must adapt quickly to increasing demands, technological advancements, and the push for higher operational efficiency. Recognizing that a one-size-fits-all approach no longer serves the industry, LigoLab has introduced a flexible tiered pricing for its laboratory information system (LIS) software platform. Among these tiers, the Advanced Tier stands out as a robust, full-featured LIS lab solution designed specifically for expansive, high-volume laboratories.

Key Features of the Advanced Tier
Multi-Facility Support
The Multi-Facility Support module streamlines pathology lab management across multiple locations by enabling each site to operate with its particular workflows, policies, and compliance configurations—all while staying integrated within a single, unified LIS software platform.
Users benefit from:
- Unlimited site and user licenses
- User-specific configuration for role-based access and lab workflow optimization
- Sublicensing capabilities for extended business models like TC/PC partnerships
This feature supports operational efficiency and also positions labs for scalable growth and new revenue opportunities.

Send Out Tracking
Managing send-outs to reference labs or between internal sites is often tedious. This module automates that process, eliminating manual requisitions and paperwork errors.
Key capabilities include:
- Auto-filled reference lab forms
- Manifest creation and real-time tracking of tests
- Electronic data exchange with partner labs
- Complete traceability from specimen send-out to final report integration
This degree of control helps accelerate turnaround times and reduce errors—an essential advantage for high-volume laboratories.

Customer Service Management (CSM) + Case Flagging
The Customer Service Management (CSM) module centralizes all customer interactions and internal issue tracking. When paired with Case Flagging, it becomes a powerful LIS lab tool for ensuring quality and transparency.
- Flagged cases (delays, result reviews, call requests) trigger automatic tickets
- All tickets are tracked in CSM for streamlined issue resolution
- Enhances accountability and customer satisfaction
Together, these lab information system tools help labs stay responsive and proactive in managing both client relationships and internal workflows.
