C0770Does AuroraMed provide lab order entry with specimen requirements and AOE?
The laboratory, pathology, microbiology and blood bank part of the specification (REQ-1301) says the system must provide lab order entry with specimen requirements and AOE. No. The specification describes it, but the pilot does not include it. Acceptance check: requirements displayed before collection.
C0771Does AuroraMed support barcode specimen collection, accessioning, tracking and chain of custody?
How would it be tested? The specification says wrong-label scan blocks. That is the check for REQ-1302: the system must support barcode specimen collection, accessioning, tracking and chain of custody. Not yet. It is designed in the specification and not built in the pilot.
C0772Does AuroraMed interface with analyzers via ASTM E1381/E1394 (LIS2-A2) and CLSI AUTO/POCT1?
Designed, not built: there is no code for this in the pilot. For reference, REQ-1303 (a top-priority requirement, the medium and large tiers) says the system must interface with analyzers via ASTM E1381/E1394 (LIS2-A2) and CLSI AUTO/POCT1. Check: frame checksum error triggers retransmission.
C0773Does AuroraMed provide autoverification, delta checks, reflex testing and add-on orders under lab-director-approved rules?
The system must provide autoverification, delta checks, reflex testing and add-on orders under lab-director-approved rules. That is REQ-1304, a high-priority requirement for the medium and large tiers. This is on the design side of the line. Nothing in v0.2.0 does it. Test in the specification: rule change is versioned.
C0774Does AuroraMed support QC (Levey-Jennings, Westgard) and proficiency testing?
No. The specification describes it, but the pilot does not include it. REQ-1305 says the system must support QC (Levey-Jennings, Westgard) and proficiency testing. Its acceptance check: rule violation blocks release.
C0775Does AuroraMed support CLIA/CAP/COLA compliance records?
REQ-1306 is a high-priority requirement for all three tiers: the system must support CLIA/CAP/COLA compliance records. Not yet. It is designed in the specification and not built in the pilot. To verify it, the specification says certificate expiry alerts.
C0776Does AuroraMed support microbiology workflows with AST/MIC interpretation and antibiogram?
The laboratory, pathology, microbiology and blood bank part of the specification (REQ-1307) says the system must support microbiology workflows with AST/MIC interpretation and antibiogram. Designed, not built: there is no code for this in the pilot. Acceptance check: breakpoint standard version recorded.
C0777Does AuroraMed support anatomic pathology (gross, histology, cytology, frozen) and digital pathology integration?
How would it be tested? The specification says case tracking by block/slide. That is the check for REQ-1308: the system must support anatomic pathology (gross, histology, cytology, frozen) and digital pathology integration. This is on the design side of the line. Nothing in v0.2.0 does it.
C0778Does AuroraMed support molecular/genomic workflows and variant reporting with HGVS/HGNC?
No. The specification describes it, but the pilot does not include it. For reference, REQ-1309 (a medium-priority requirement, the large tier only) says the system must support molecular/genomic workflows and variant reporting with HGVS/HGNC. Check: variant notation validated.
C0779Does AuroraMed support blood bank typing, crossmatch, inventory, ISBT 128 labeling and bedside verification?
The system must support blood bank typing, crossmatch, inventory, ISBT 128 labeling and bedside verification. That is REQ-1310, a top-priority requirement for the medium and large tiers. Not yet. It is designed in the specification and not built in the pilot. Test in the specification: unit-patient mismatch blocks issue.
C0780Does AuroraMed support outreach and send-out lab management?
Designed, not built: there is no code for this in the pilot. REQ-1311 says the system must support outreach and send-out lab management. Its acceptance check: send-out result attaches to original order.
C0781Does AuroraMed report to public health (ELR, newborn screening)?
REQ-1312 is a high-priority requirement for the medium and large tiers: the system must report to public health (ELR, newborn screening). This is on the design side of the line. Nothing in v0.2.0 does it. To verify it, the specification says eLR message format validates.
C0782Does AuroraMed maintain the lab test catalog with LOINC mappings, and lab inventory, workload and TAT dashboards?
The laboratory, pathology, microbiology and blood bank part of the specification (REQ-1313) says the system must maintain the lab test catalog with LOINC mappings, and lab inventory, workload and TAT dashboards. No. The specification describes it, but the pilot does not include it. Acceptance check: every orderable has LOINC or documented exception.
C0783Does AuroraMed support HL7 LOI/LRI and eDOS profiles?
How would it be tested? The specification says profile tests pass. That is the check for REQ-1314: the system must support HL7 LOI/LRI and eDOS profiles. Not yet. It is designed in the specification and not built in the pilot.
