Cut average report turnaround time from hours to minutes
03
Single source of truth for tests, samples, and patient history

01 · The problem

What we walked into.

A medical laboratory was running end-to-end diagnostic testing on paper job cards passed between technicians, doctors, and reception. Lost cards, hand-copied results, and unclear ownership were costing the team hours every day.

02 · What we built

The shape of the system.

A role-aware web app that covers the full lifecycle of a test:

Reception
registers patients and issues job numbers.
Technicians
pick jobs from a live queue, enter measurements, and flag anomalies.
Doctors
review completed tests, sign off reports, and push them to print or WhatsApp.
Admins
see revenue, outstanding tests, and staff workload on a single dashboard.

Everything is backed by a Postgres schema built around the test entity: samples, measurements, reports, and audit trail all hang off it.
