OTTAWA, Ontario - illiNews -- The Eastern Ontario Regional Laboratory Association's (EORLA) acute care and hospital-based lab clinics were amongst the first set of health services providers to feel the impact of COVID-19. With waiting rooms at reduced capacity, they were keenly aware of needing to figure out how to ensure that their patients would be able to get safe access to their health tests.

EORLA looked to Macadamian to help find a way to leverage technology to help increase their capacity while ensuring that patients were seen in a timely manner and did not have to wait in a crowded waiting room.

"For our clients, Macadamian's InQ solution will mean avoiding long lines by only having to show up 5-10 minutes before they can be seen. Our patients will also be able to view and monitor their progress on the waiting list. InQ allows us to scale up our laboratory testing while ensuring patients and staff are safe and have the best possible experience." - Jeffrey Dale, CEO EORLA

Macadamian InQ is a mobile and desktop solution that manages the patient check-in and queuing process to ensure that they can walk into the facility only when it is their time to do so and there is the capacity to serve them. The solution offers:
