The order-and-report loop for a study at Aim Sleep Clinic
When Aim Sleep Clinic arranges a sleep study, the order and the patient's history go to the lab, and the scored, physician-interpreted report is faxed back so the diagnosis reaches the chart. The interpreted report states the apnea-hypopnea index and the diagnosis so the office can plan therapy. Keep the confirmation so the case shows the study report was returned.
