Does anyone have an electronic ordering/results interface setup with Exact Sciences(ColoGuard)?

Exact Sciences would NOT work on an interface with us, they stated they don't have anything available with Athena Practice. We've run into similar with another vendor (VaxCare) who stated they couldn't get Athena to work with them because Athena Practice was going away. Not good signs.

The closest to an interface with Exact Sciences that we have come is to send them a weekly fax with all our orders in it. We worked with them on what the "orders" in this fax would look like and what info would be in them. This lets them to OCR on the faxes and automate the order entry. So for us we were able to automate this and send the fax weekly automatically.

For the results, we haven't been able to do anything to automate this. Our staff have to manually enter the results.

Forgot to mention, we used SQL Server Reporting Services to facilitate the generation of the weekly faxes. This is just a report in SSRS where we have it setup to run weekly and create a PDF file for us.

We use WestFax as our Fax Vendor, and they have some API's available that we utilize for the sending of the fax. Without this you would just need staff to send one fax a week though, so nothing major.
