ArgoLIMS is a cloud based solution for clinical and forensic laboratories. It provides a comprehensive suite of applications for the management of data across the full lifecycle of laboratory testing. Beginning with the collection of patient samples and the provider’s selection of tests, ArgoLIMS captures, validates, and controls the flow of information. In the laboratory, ArgoLIMS minimizes human error, optimizes the receipt, preparation, and testing of samples, individually or in batches. With instrument interfaces ranging from ASTM serial ports, CSV files, and networked HL7 messaging, ArgoLIMS collects result data, then processes and incorporates them into customer tailored reports. ArgoLIMS reports focus on the delivery of clear, actionable results through one or more communication channels including fax, file transfer, HL7 message exchange with EHRs, as well as an optional mobile portal, white labeled, to appear under your own branded name, on both Android and iPhone app stores.
