How To Send Lab Orders in EMR

You have to reach out to your lab rep and request for integration with DocVilla. Labs are responsible for covering the integration fees with the EHR.

The lab integration process may take several weeks to months depending on the lab’s internal procedures and your patient volume. Once you complete the registration, a lab representative will contact us to initiate the integration of your lab account with your DocVilla account. You will need to follow up with the lab rep to ensure they reach out to us.

There is additional Integration fee plus Annual Maintenance Fee for Lab Interface integration. This is in addition to the DocVilla subscription fee.

Preferred Labs:

Labcorp -

If the medical practice does not have a LabCorp Account # or Representative yet, the client can submit a request to: Contact a Labcorp account representative | Labcorp , fill out the form, and select an option under “New Account Request”.

If the medical practice does have a LabCorp Account # but does not know their rep’s name, the client can place a request at: Contact a Labcorp account representative | Labcorp , fill out the form, and at the bottom under “Existing Users” type in their Account Number and indicate in the Comments section that they are requesting a new interface.

Please note:
If the lab declines to cover the initial integration fee, no EHR can proceed with integration until your practice has built enough patient volume. In such cases, we recommend developing a relationship with the lab by sending orders through their portal or through eFax from DocVilla.

There is also additional Annual Maintenance Fee that is usually paid by labs to the EHR. In certain cases if the lab refuses to cover this cost, then the medical practice will be required to pay the Annual Maintenance Fee. This fee is in addition to the DocVilla subscription fee.
