METHOD FOR MANAGING COVID-19 TESTING PROCESSES

Abstract

ABSTRACT A method (100) for managing COVID-19 testing processes. Further, the method comprising receiving patient registration information through a web-based interface and storing it in a centralized database. Further, the method (100) comprising the steps of scheduling a testing appointment by providing available time slots and locations to the patient. Further, the method (100) comprising the steps of tracking sample collection by assigning a phlebotomist and recording the collection details in the database. Further, the method (100) comprising the steps of processing samples in a laboratory and updating the status in real-time within the system. Further, the method (100) comprising the steps of notifying patients of test results via the web interface and secure messaging, allowing access to their results and medical advice.

Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] This invention generally relates to a field of healthcare technology and in particular relates to a method for testing COVID-19.
BACKGROUND
[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted global healthcare systems, revealing critical gaps in the management of testing processes. Traditional methods of COVID-19 testing often involve cumbersome procedures, leading to delays in patient registration, sample collection, result reporting, and overall , Claims:1. A method (100) for managing COVID-19 testing processes, the method comprising the steps of:
receiving patient registration information through a web-based interface and storing it in a centralized database;
scheduling a testing appointment by providing available time slots and locations to the patient;
tracking sample collection by assigning a phlebotomist and recording the collection details in the database;
processing samples in a laboratory and updating the status in real-time within the system; and
notifying patients of test results via the web interface and secure messaging, allowing access to their results and medical advice.

2. The method (100) as claimed in claim 1, further comprises a notification module that sends automated notifications to patients and healthcare professionals regarding test results, appointment schedules, and testing updates, thereby enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the testing process.
