A diagnostic catalog contains all the pertinent information about the diagnostic services you provide, including your analytes, reference ranges, panels, specimen requirements, and laboratory procedures.

LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) was established with the intention of defining a universal standard for identifying clinical data in electronic reports. The overall scope of LOINC is anything you can test, measure, or observe about a patient.

A patient may have several visits, messages, and follow-up Tasks during one care program. The team still needs a way to answer: who is responsible for this case, and is it still active?

In on our previous guide about creating diagnostic services catalog, we described the importance of the ObservationDefinition resource for storing metadata about the Observations produced by the test. This metadata is not just for ensuring data correctness, but also a key component in assisting providers with data interpretation.

Calling a patient, reviewing an assessment, and checking an authorization all need someone to own the next step. Use Task to represent each unit of work, including its owner, status, and completion evidence. Keep the clinical request and resulting record linked to the Task so the team can see both the work and its context.
