The provider’s job
Order kits, receive the box, collect a sample from the patient, and send that sample back. You are the starting point and the person the patient talks to.
Simple walkthrough
Think of it like a round trip. The clinic asks for a test kit, the lab ships it, you collect a sample, then the sample goes back so the lab can do the testing.
Order kits, receive the box, collect a sample from the patient, and send that sample back. You are the starting point and the person the patient talks to.
Pack and ship unused kits to you, receive the sample you send back, run the allergy tests, and send the answers to the provider.
Follow the line from left to right. Navy is the clinic. Teal is the lab.
Most offices keep kits on the shelf. Some orders go to one person only.
You order a box of kits. They sit at the clinic until a patient needs one. When you use a kit, you tell this portal which patient it belongs to.
You (or the patient) request a single kit. The lab ships that one kit, then the same collect-and-return steps still apply.
Click New order on the home page. Choose a box of kits for the office, or one kit for one patient. Fill in where the kit should go. That is all you need to start.
People at Infinite Allergy Labs pull the kits off the shelf, pack them, and send them to the clinic (or to the patient’s address). In this portal, an admin marks the request as shipped when the box goes out.
Once the lab has marked the box as shipped, you can assign those stock kits to patients. Later, UPS tracking can mark the box received when it is delivered — you do not need to click anything.
Open a kit, fill out who it is for, and collect the sample the kit is made for (usually a small blood sample). Think of the kit as a pre-packed envelope: tubes, instructions, and a way to send it back.
Seal the used kit and send it to the lab. The unused kits stay at the clinic for the next patient. This shipping portal tracks kits going to you. The return trip is the sample going back to the lab for testing.
Once the sample arrives, lab staff check it in and run the allergy tests. That work happens in the lab’s testing system, not in this shipping portal.
When testing is finished, the lab shares the results with the provider. You then sit down with the patient and explain what it means and what to do next.
