One source of frustration for patients is showing up for lab work only to find the request has not been properly submitted by their doctor's office. Having a flowchart that clearly lays out the steps involved in requesting lab work can help prevent this happening to your patients. Use the requesting lab work medical process flowchart example found in SmartDraw as a starting point, and customize it to document the steps in your process. You can even link to approval/request forms, insurance company information, lab schedules and more.
