It is a global problem that 50 – 68 % of lab tests done for patients (as outpatients or inpatients) are unjustified. Such unnecessary testing is contributing to an estimated $210 billion in additional health care costs in USA only
Reasons the doctors ordered these tests: Try to compensate the deficiency in physical examination by requesting as many as possible of lab and imaging studies fearing of missing something that would help them diagnose their patients, and protection against malpractice.
With the use of that application, we can consider it as an invisible intelligent robot assisting the physician step by step in collaborating the data from the patient and guiding him to apply the right physical examination in an organized scientific pattern, and then the application helps the doctor to reach a provisional diagnosis in a quick and accurate manner. Accordingly, the application shall choose and tell only the right lab tests and exact imaging studies, thus saves that huge waste in resources.
