B-Treat Lab Module is a part of the Total Hospital Management System (THMS). It can be set up as an entirely independent software as well, dealing with each and every task that goes on in a laboratory.

Activities in a laboratory start when the Doctor orders for a Test to be conducted for a particular patient. The extremely user-friendly interface enables the doctor himself to directly order the test on the system. The ordering system is directly linked to the billing, thus giving facility for monitoring the payments.

B-Treat can also be set making the billing as the first event of all the activities in the Lab, which ensures that no test is done in the laboratory unless a billing is done for the same. In a multi-user environment, billing and payment collection can be done at any of the cash counters. Once the billing is done, the corresponding information goes to the Lab technicians automatically. This in turn gives ample time to the Lab personnel to be prepared for the specimen collection even as the patient actually reaches the Lab.

The billing also sets up a set of forms automatically for data entry for the tests for which the billing has been done. B-Treat's Dynamic Screen Modelling System (DSMS) ensures that only the required fields are brought onto the screen for that particular test, avoiding confusions for the operators. For every test reading normal values are displayed side by side for quick verifications. B-Treat's Criteria Based Value Providing System (CBVPS) automatically provides normal values depending on age, gender and other criteria.

Once the data entry is over, test results can be printed out with various options. When there are multiple tests from various branches like Haematology, Biochemistry, Serology etc. B-Treat's print engine automatically groups them and prints appropriately.

There are facilities for doctors located in their respective departments to login anytime to the Lab module for quick references to find out the progress of any test, with options of printing the same. This can avoid a lot of delays while dealing with a patient and eventually enhances the level of patient satisfaction.

The Management Information System (MIS) component provides various financial statements in addition to test wise statistical information.

The most appreciated feature of B-Treat Lab Module is its easy expandability. Adding a new group, division, test etc. can be done in seconds avoiding a programmer's involvement as done in legacy systems. It also has provisions for easy add/edit/delete options for all Master items.
