If you’re interested in learning more about Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant, let’s start a conversation.
Providing Lab Results from Labcorp’s Extensive Network
Labcorp’s single, unified data platform includes lab results for approximately 50% of the US population. Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant delivers these patient lab results to the point care, regardless of who ordered the lab test or which Labcorp facility performed the test.
Delivering a Single, Integrated View of Patient Lab Results
Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant leverages EHR-based, Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standards to combine lab results already in the EHR with the additional Labcorp lab results identified for a patient. This enables Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant in delivering a single, integrated view that can be accessed at the point of care, ensuring clinicians have the most complete view of a patient’s lab history.
Enhancing Clinical Decision Support Delivery
For more than 10 years, Labcorp has delivered guidelines-based clinical decision support (CDS) content to clinicians who support patients with high-cost disease states, such as chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, kidney stones, and most recently COVID-19.
To date, more than 25,000 clinicians have enrolled in Labcorp’s CDS program and have received over 7 million lab-based clinical decision reports. Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant provides real-time access to this content at the point of care, allowing the clinician to leverage this information within their clinical decision-making workflow.
Enhancing Clinician Efficiency
Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant highlights active conditions that require attention. Relevant data for each condition is integrated via SmartTrends™, a feature for viewing results trends. Guideline-based CDS content helps the clinician quickly address next steps.
Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant puts comprehensive clinical information all in one place—in the EHR. This minimizes the time clinicians spend toggling between disparate systems, mining data, and synthesizing information, allowing them to spend more time interacting with the patient.
Improving Patient Care
By providing comprehensive lab results and clinical insights at the point of care, Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant helps clinicians synthesize information and identify active conditions that warrant attention. Clinicians get insights that help facilitate conversations to engage patients in the next steps in their care plan.
Benefits of Labcorp Diagnostic Assistant
- Agnostic: leverages EHR-based standards to allow implementation into any clinician organization whose EHR is FHIR-enabled.
- Comprehensive: delivers an enhanced laboratory view by linking Labcorp results that occurred outside of the clinician’s organization with other EHR data (e.g. labs, medications, procedures, vitals).
- Configurable: allows clinicians to create custom filters to quickly get to the most clinically relevant results.
- Easy-to-use: brings data directly into workflows and displays guideline-based clinical insights on demand.

Data vs. Insights: Meeting Clinicians and Patients at the Point of Care
Laboratory results are critical for diagnosing and monitoring a patient's condition, but Dr. Jennifer Ennis’s experiences in practice and in talking with other clinicians underscore the need for laboratory insights that offer a clearer picture of a patient's health. There is also a need for corresponding information that enhances patient understanding of laboratory test results to increase engagement and compliance with treatment plans.
