The latest release of Harvest LIS, Version 5.0, adds advanced levels of process automation to address both the workflow and regulatory issues.
     An intuitive graphical user interface facilitates training and daily use by all laboratory personnel, while the enhanced, multi-level security features, as well as automated user tracking and audit trail mechanisms, ensure the strictest patient confidentiality and system integrity.
     To improve reimbursement, Harvest 5.0 utilizes a higher level of automated ABN review, alerting the user to non-compliant orders: failed medical necessity checks, testing frequency violations, and testing deemed experimental. This is available in English and Spanish.
     Harvest 5.0 offers feature-complete bi-directional interfaces to the major reference laboratories, supporting the transmission of demographic, order, result, and financial information.
     Patient reports are automatically delivered based on user-defined rules, including severity of results, order priority, and provider
preference.
     When interfaced with the Beckman Coulter line of 5-part diff hematology analyzers, Harvest 5.0 supports a virtually paperless hematology environment.
