Systems

The Information system that I chose is Laboratory Information Systems. They have a product out called the polytech. Polytech is an information system that makes lab work so much easier.  “Polytech help make the process of getting lab orders from the clinician and getting results back into the patient’s Medical Record, one fast, easy, efficient, completely traceable electronic process that saves time, reduces cost, minimizes effort and eliminates potential for error and billing oversights.” They are hoping that polytech will be the information system to cure diseases and cancers. Laboratories all over America are now using polytech because of the amazing results. This is a big step for labs because making it easier on the workers and having the capability to find new discoveries will hopefully result in curing diseases and saving thousands of lives.

This information system certainly inputs, processes, and outputs information in order to get feedback from customers and other labs. Scientists are able to input there findings and information and while it processes through the polytech it is able to output the information to anyone or any lab throughout the country. It is able to receive feedback also so it is a component that will increase productivity and make is easier for labs throughout the entire country. Feedback is the key for this whole process to work because without communicating with other laboratories and comparing information there would be no result and the information system would be obsolete. Polytech can also handle financial concerns for labs it will handle billing problems by storing everything needed and keeping it organized this will result in less errors and happy customers.
