The age of
digitalization has not only aided us in buying day-to-day commodities online
but also in availing a broad range of medical services as well. Booking lab
tests online is one of the many services that people of India can and have
benefited from, in addition to checking the nearest pathology labs, the rate of
the tests, availability of specialists for recommendations and much more. Dr
Lal PathLabs is one perfect example to quote here. The brand was apparently one
of the first pathology labs to introduce such online medical services and add
ease to our lives.
Let us look at
how digitalization is helping us, the people of India.
Location Based Search –
Considering the example of Dr Lal PathLabs, you can easily search for the
nearest Dr Lal PathLabs center through its easy search page and get the tests
done. The search page also fetches you the address of the diagnostic lab, how
far is the center from your desired location and even its phone number for
enquiring about their services.
Price Transparency: While
booking a test online, you can easily check the rate of the test, compare it
with the price charged by other pathology labs and take the final call. For
instance, if you have to get a Complete Blood Count test done that, for say, is
being offered for INR 500/- by one pathology lab and INR 450/- by another, you
know which one to choose. Moreover, you can also check the rating given by
other users to path labs, which can further help in deciding whether or not you
must avail its services.
Free Home Collection: This
is by-far one of the biggest advantage rendered by diagnostic centers to us.
Now, you can easily book lab tests online and give away samples for testing
while enjoying the comfort of your home.
Make Payment online or at the Time of Sample Collection: Apart from these services, diagnostic chains also give you the
advantage of making payments online or at the time of sample collection (in
cash).
Quick
Sample Collection & Reports: This is one of the best parts! When you
register for home sample collection service you will be asked about your
suitable time. The technician will collect the sample(s) at your desired time
and place. Also, most pathology labs, such as Dr Lal PathLabs, also give you
the advantage of checking and downloading your reports online. This means that
you don’t have to personally visit your diagnostic center for collecting
reports.
