Testimonial
With the acquisition of Orchard, the efficiency in our daily workflow has improved immensely. By going paperless, we were able to eliminate the need for a lab aid to help with patient processing and filing. We decreased our budgetary needs for paper, decreased our clerical errors, and improved our TATs significantly. The difference was phenomenal.
