Lab Result Follow-Through

When an authorized clinic user starts lab follow-through from available results, Tabflows compares them against patient history and reference ranges, highlights abnormal values, and prepares the right follow-up — chart note, patient message, or provider task — for review.

Workflow snapshot

Context in, prepared action out — what Tabflows reads in a user-started browser session, and what it stages for review.

Initiation

An authorized clinic user starts the workflow from a lab result available in Quest, Labcorp, or a local lab integration.

User-initiated. Runs in the authorized clinic user's active browser session and uses the systems the user is already signed into.

Action out

Abnormal results are highlighted with reviewed follow-up tasks and patient-message drafts.

Tabflows does not store EHR credentials, does not independently initiate EHR access, and prepares work for review rather than acting as an open-ended autonomous EHR agent.

Saves ~6 minutes per result

How it runs

Each step Tabflows prepares, from user initiation to clinic review.

Sketch: a lab result flows through Tabflows into a patient follow-up checklist
  1. 1
    Opens the result
    Gathering
    Tabflows works with the lab result the clinic user selected from the active browser session.
  2. 2
    Compares against history
    Thinking
    Trends, reference ranges, and prior abnormalities are checked so context isn't lost.
  3. 3
    Flags abnormals for triage
    Drafting
    Anything outside range is highlighted for priority review; routine results are prepared for the chart.
  4. 4
    Prepares team follow-up
    Waiting
    Need an MA callback? Provider review? Tabflows stages the right task with the result attached.
  5. 5
    Drafts the patient message
    Done
    When a Spruce reply is needed, Tabflows pre-writes it in your voice so you can review and complete it.

Hey Tabflows — set up user-initiated lab result follow-through. When I choose a Quest or Labcorp result, compare it against the patient's history and reference ranges. Prepare routine results for the Elation chart. Flag abnormals and stage the follow-up — MA callback, provider review, or patient message — with the result attached. When a Spruce reply is needed, draft it in my voice so I can review and complete it.
