COVID-19 Cloud Lab Testing Platform Software
Large scale testing is going to be key to contain COVID-19. But tracking testing & ensuring compliance for 100s of labs across the country is very hard. CrelioHealth has been doing exactly that with 1500+ labs across India. Current Landscape: This is the start for COVID-19 pandemic, at the peak of the curve India will be doing thousands of tests daily. In such a case, we will need very capable tech infrastructure while enabling real-time decision making by giving us better control over information flow.

Getting labs started with the workflows for testing is key. They would need different sample types & vacutainers than usual, report templates with WHO & ICMR guidelines, integrate with instruments to capture results automatically, ability to capture patient history every time a healthcare worker interacts with a patient and finally report all cases to ICMR & Govt authorities with ease or ideally automatically. A need for an integrated technology solution cannot be ignored, with so much market fragmentation, and untrained staff it`s almost impossible to ensure accurate reporting at scale and on time.
We can get customers started with the platform with integrated instruments within a few hours.
Saving labs more than 40% time in compliance and zero time in reporting. We have already built a quick onboarding ready flow for Covid in the platform as we have 4 labs already testing Covid -19 on it.

- Patients/ Samples are registered at each hospital or lab separately.
- Testing is done on local software and paper based forms are used.
- Each lab then needs to manually upload every single patient to ICMR website.
- Positive samples are sent to NIV - Registration done only on paper.
- Reporting the patient is done via phone calls.
- Reporting to Authorities is done via email & paper.
Current Problems
- Testing guidanceTesting for COVID-19 RT-PCR is not routine for labs, they need guidance.
- Reporting of results to ICMR is a burden, automated or bulk reporting is not available.
- Mobile Reporting is not available everywhere. Technology can help scale testing via Booths.
Solution
What we really need is a simplified way of scaling up testing using existing infrastructure of available 300,000 labs in the country.
- More Labs should and will be needed to test across different parts of the country.
- Interoperable Information Systems, integrated with helplines, hospitals & govt. platforms.
- Mobile testing & reporting capabilities for testing at booths, at home collections.
- Finally a prediction engine on top which can predict outbreaks by pin-code.
