How Patient Questionnaires Add Clinical Value

Not all lab results tell the full story on their own. For certain tests, such as genetic panels and hormone assessments, interpreting results accurately can depend on more than just biological data. Factors like family history, lifestyle choices, and stage of life can influence how results are best understood.

When these differences are especially relevant, we use patient questionnaires to enhance report interpretation and personalize key elements of the report. This additional input allows us to tailor reference ranges and refine report comments, providing you with deeper clinical context and more actionable insights.

How Questionnaires Strengthen the Report

For tests that include them, patient questionnaires help you:

• Understand how individual factors may influence results
• See customized reference ranges when applicable
• Receive tailored report comments based on patient input
• Gain clarity on symptoms and health patterns alongside test data
• Make decisions based on a more complete clinical picture

A Simple Workflow for Providers and Patients

We’ve built features to ensure the questionnaire process supports your workflow without adding friction:

• Shareable links are available from the Test Reports tab for easy sharing

• Automatic patient reminders can be configured in your settings and, by default, are sent every three days until the questionnaire is submitted
• A straightforward interface helps patients complete forms on their own time from any device
• Both providers and patients can view responses, making the information easy to reference at any point in care

Designed to Enhance Care, Not Complicate Reports

The goal of patient questionnaires is to enhance the report where additional context can support better interpretation. We keep the process flexible so you can complete the questionnaire during the visit or send it to the patient afterward. The tools are designed to improve care delivery while saving time for both patients and staff.
