Is anyone out there printing barcodes on their lab/order requisitions? Our site opened a case with GE and they noted this isn't a supported GE workflow. Our support manager noted that there are sites presently using this and to post on this forum to see how they're doing it.
Any input would be much appreciated!

Is it the same barcode that you want printed on the lab/order requisition regardless of patient, like one that identifies your organization? I ask, because we have a barcode that we added to our printed prescriptions so that Walgreen's could identify scripts that qualified for a specific discount. I modified the Crystal report for this to include the barcode under certain criteria, but it is the same barcode and does not change, in fact, in this case it is actually an image file that I imbedded in the Crystal report. If your situation is similar, then I would look at the tstorder.rpt in the Client\crwrpts folder on your thick client installs or Citrix servers.
If you are actually referring to a changing barcode, like one that identifies patient information, then this solution won't work for you.

Hello, thank you for your input. We would need it to be unique per patient.

you can modify the crystal report and use a barcode font to generated a barcode prinout based on the order number.
this will be = to the same field of the order number the only difference is that it will print in barcode format instead of the actual number

Hi all,
We are trying to add a barcode to our lab requisitions that would output the patients name, DOB, or MRN when scanned. Does anyone have a copy of a lab requisition like this? That crystal report file would be extremely helpful. Thanks!
