Why does the Action List provide a lab test date but not a result for some patients?
Lab tests that are accomplished in the direct care system and logged in the Clinical Chemistry subscript of CHCS are electronically transmitted to CIB each month, including test results. Lab tests accomplished in the Network are captured via billing data, which do not include test results. Therefore, if a test is accomplished in the Network, the Action List will reflect only the test date. If the test was covered by other health insurance (OHI) or done in the VA system, those data will not be reflected in Portal data.
