High-complexity diagnostic laboratories typically require significant physical space, specialized environmental controls, expensive instrumentation, and dedicated personnel. This has traditionally prevented smaller clinics and physician practices from running their own labs.
The LMS of Texas Model changes this: We establish a dedicated laboratory space under our roof, customized to your specific diagnostic requirements. We procure the instrumentation, hire the highly-skilled scientific staff, and manage CLIA/COLA accreditations.
Your clinic gets the control, speed, and accuracy of a proprietary high-complexity testing lab without dedicating a single square foot of clinic space or managing lab staff.
Four phases to establish and operate your clinical testing pipeline.
We consult with your clinical team to analyze your patient population (e.g. pain management, family practice, urology) and establish the ideal panels menu. We configure the custom analytes, handle regulatory registrations, and establish active accounts on our online results portal.
LMS of Texas delivers custom collection kits directly to your practice (urine and/or oral fluid collection cups, swabs, labels, and baggies). We train your nursing/medical assistant staff on secure chain-of-custody logging and register your EHR systems for automated electronic integration.
On arrival at your offsite managed physician owned CLIA lab, specimens undergo automated and manual verification, processing via automated robotic workflows and reviewed by licensed technologist.
Quantitative results (precise ng/mL values) are routed into your EHR system and uploaded to our portal within 24-48 hours. Report files include clear Parent-Metabolite ratios, specimen validity audits (pH, creatinine, specific gravity), and clinical commentaries.
