[Health] Histopathology results reporting template vs other lab

[Yusuf Suleiman]

Hello,
I have suggested a Gnuhealth to be the HIS for the routing results reporting in 
one pathology laboratory, and I have the following observations.

1. The results reporting template of histopathology lab is not the same with 
other laboratories such as microbiology or hematology.
2. The routine procedures are also different.
3. The results reporting template can be modify to fit histology lab but only 
if the institution is not offering other laboratory investigation such as 
chemistry and so on.
4. Many institutions may not want to marge different departments/units test 
reports in a single template.

With this, I am suggesting if possible, different templates for the major 
laboratory departments or units can be created.

For example, at a point where we register for the services (under products 
module) on gnuhealth like “urine culture”, we do select if the service we are 
registering belong to imagine or laboratory. For that matter, major laboratory 
departments/units (histopathology, microbiology/bacteriology, hematology, and 
chemical-pathology) can come up, So that if I am registering “urine culture”, I 
can select a microbiology in place of the laboratory that we do select. 

This will allow for each unit template to be tag with all investigations under 
a selected department.

Thank you.
