Operational Excellence - It’s Possible When Using the Right Pathology Software
April 22, 2025
Operational excellence - it’s what all independent and commercial medical laboratories would, without fail, like to achieve. Yet, many of these important lab businesses are struggling because their current LIS laboratory information system software is outdated and lacking key features.

Using patchwork lab information system solutions to connect anatomic pathology, clinical laboratory, molecular diagnostics, and laboratory billing/lab revenue cycle management systems that all exist as separate entities is short-sighted and costly.
These arrangements are expensive to maintain, inefficient, and prone to inconsistent data as critical patient and specimen information is transferred to and from multiple laboratory software systems.
Operational excellence is possible and starts with optimized laboratory workflow management powered by advanced pathology lab software.
When medical labs use the best LIS software platforms provided by dedicated laboratory information system vendors that take full responsibility for all lab informatics, they benefit from turnkey, agile, and comprehensive pathology lab management solutions that are fully integrated (with all lab workflow applications working together).
This presents a significant advantage over legacy LIS systems that can’t support one source of truth - consistent data integrity from start to finish.

Achieve Seamless Lab Operations and Revenue Growth with Fully Integrated Medical LIS & Lab RCM Solutions
Advanced laboratory information system functions that no longer need synchronization and middleware create an ideal situation for the lab. One where there’s no longer any finger-pointing and headaches, thanks to one source of consistent data integrity.
LigoLab’s all-in-one medical LIS & lab RCM informatics platform connects, merges, and integrates every lab process and department through a comprehensive and agile pathology lab software that becomes the focal point for all lab operations (administrative, technical, and financial).

The platform modernizes labs by automating processes, streamlining workflows, and eliminating human errors. In short, LigoLab’s medical LIS and lab billing software makes operational excellence achievable while positioning customers to become more profitable and scale.
With a fully integrated platform, lab directors and managers can combine the LIS system and lab RCM workflows and start the laboratory billing process as the order is received rather than after the report has been finalized.

Labs equipped with automated front-end laboratory billing/RCM tools and third-party integrations benefit from real-time verification of patient demographic and financial data needed to ensure clean claims and payment on the first submission.
On the other hand, labs that continue to treat the laboratory billing cycle as a backend lab workflow are forced to expensively rework rejections and denials that result from missing patient data while also likely facing the potential for sizable write-offs.
Transform Your Lab with Scalable LIS & Laboratory Billing Solutions, Tiered Pricing, and a Partnership Built for Growth
Admittedly, deciding to go with an enterprise-level pathology software solution that incorporates all laboratory information system functions and laboratory billing solutions into one platform is a major change.
Still, the goal of every lab business is to increase margins, streamline processes, expand services, and ultimately scale while achieving operational excellence.
The LigoLab platform checks all the boxes in this regard. Additionally, the LIS system with advanced billing software for labs offers tiered pricing that delivers maximum value regardless of the size of the lab, its testing types, and testing volume.
