A single laboratory error can end in a wrong treatment decision. So it is not enough for the system to print a nice report; it must control the specimen's whole journey from the order to a verified, released result.
The specimen's journey, step by step
- Order: register the patient, the requested tests and the priority.
- Collection: a specimen with a barcode label that ties it to the patient and the order with no handwriting.
- Analysis: enter results and compare them automatically with normal and critical limits.
- Verification: no result leaves before the responsible specialist reviews it.
- Release: a clear printed report, and an invoice.
Critical values cannot wait
Ask how the system handles a critical result: does it appear in its own list on the home screen? Does it record who was informed and when? Good software makes an unreported critical result visible and impossible to ignore.
Quality control
Record quality-control runs in the same system, not in a separate notebook. It makes review easier and shows inspectors that the lab works to clear procedures.
The home screen a lab manager needs
Specimens awaiting collection, specimens in the lab, results awaiting verification, critical results, reports ready to release and insurance coverage expiring soon. These numbers alone tell you where work is stuck today.
Patient data
Test results are highly sensitive health data. Bawabetna's system runs on the lab's own computers with the records encrypted on them, the patient decides what is shared, and work continues without internet.
Checklist
- A test catalogue with normal and critical limits.
- Barcoded specimens and mandatory verification before release.
- Separate permissions for reception, phlebotomy, technicians, the pathologist and the cashier.
- Reports on tests performed, results by flag and quality-control runs.
- A full trial before paying, and a price that follows the size of the lab.
Questions?
Which computers does it run on?
The programs run on Windows computers. With several computers, one keeps the office's encrypted vault and the others connect to it over your local network.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Booking, records, invoicing and printing keep working offline. Whatever needs to be sent is sent when the connection returns.
Where are my records kept?
In an encrypted vault on your own computer. Bawabetna does not host your full working records.
Who decides what is shared about a client?
The client. Clients manage their own consent from their own app; a professional never decides on their behalf.
Can I move my data from my current software?
Yes. Client lists and records can be imported from Excel or CSV files, with a preview before importing and the option to undo.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, the first month of every program is free, with all features and no card. Your data is saved on your device during the month; after 30 days without a subscription the program becomes read-only, and your data stays and you carry on as soon as you subscribe.
Which languages does it support?
Every program and this website work in 16 languages: Arabic, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Turkish, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (simplified and traditional). You can switch at any time.
