LOINC – codes for lab tests

Laboratories are one of the most non-standardized components of a hospital information system. It’s a pity because it is also a profit center for most facilities. Even if your lab machines are HL7 compliant (topic of another post), you should still ask whether the system can map to LOINC and if you or the vendor will be the one to do it.

Head on to www.loinc.org to get more details.
