PHLEBOTOMY LAB SOFTWARE SOLUTION
Replace paper requisitions with a digital collection workflow. LIMS IQ gives mobile phlebotomists route assignment, patient verification, on-site label printing, and real-time collection status from the field to your lab.
- Smart Route Optimization
- On-Site Barcode Labels
- Digital Check-In
- Offline Collection
- Custody Event Logging
Daily work stays organized
Collectors see assigned stops grouped by client, site, date, and collection status, with separate views for STAT and time-of-day work.
Errors caught at the draw
Confirmation and specimen barcode scans support demographic verification and automatic duplicate checks before labels and forms are printed on site.
Custody stays visible
Custody events are logged in real time from collection through lab receipt alongside collection status in the connected LIS.

Mobile Phlebotomy Capabilities
6 capabilitiesRoute assignment, digital check-in, on-site barcode labeling, chain-of-custody logging, exception handling, and offline sync — a mobile collection workflow connected to the LIS.
Digital Requisitions & Labeling
Scan the patient’s confirmation barcode, verify demographics, review the requisition, and print specimen labels and requisition forms at the collection site.
Real-Time Specimen Tracking
Maintain custody visibility from collection through transport and lab arrival, giving your team and clients a shared record of each specimen handoff.
Offline Mobile Capability
Keep working through spotty connectivity. The mobile app queues collection data when signal drops and syncs it once connectivity returns.
Patient Identity Verification
Open the pre-registration by scanning a confirmation barcode or searching by confirmation number or ID, then verify patient demographics before recording the collection.
Collection Status & Exceptions
Show collection status to dispatch in real time. When a draw cannot be completed, record a predefined reason and reschedule the stop or return it to the dispatcher.
Frequently asked questions
5 answers on file
Q01
How does route optimization work for mobile phlebotomy teams?
LIMS IQ pairs each phlebotomist's daily queue with the dispatcher in the LIS for route assignment. Collectors see stops by client, site, date, and status, with patient addresses and one-tap map navigation. Dispatch sees collection status in real time, and collectors can also self-assign stops.
Q02
What happens to specimen data when the phlebotomist is offline?
The mobile app supports low-connectivity collection work. Collectors can capture the registration, specimen, and custody information needed for the draw while offline, and the app syncs those records to LIMS IQ when it is online again.
Q03
How are specimens labeled at the point of draw?
Phlebotomists scan the patient's confirmation barcode or search by confirmation number or ID, verify demographics, and review the requisition. They can then scan specimen barcodes with automatic duplicate checks, record collection date and source, and print labels and requisition forms on site.
Q04
How does the platform hand custody of the specimen off to the lab?
Collectors log custody events from collection through lab receipt in real time. Because the mobile app connects to the same LIS, the lab receives the collection record, specimen details, and custody history in the operational workflow used for accessioning and tracking.
Q05
What happens when a collector cannot complete a draw?
The collector records a predefined unable-to-collect reason in the mobile queue. From there, the stop can be rescheduled or sent back to the dispatcher, so the exception remains visible instead of disappearing from the day's collection work.
