1. Laboratory Billed Items in the wawa platform

Laboratory billed items allow you to automate the billing of lab tests ordered for patients through wawa.

2. How it Works

  1. Set up a billing product for the lab test

  2. Ensure the laboratory is configured with the relevant test(s) added

    • Visit the clinic settings, then navigate to the Lab Work tab → “+ New Test” or edit pre-existing tests as needed

    • Add the relevant billing product to the test – this will be what is billed for when that variant is dispensed

  3. Order a laboratory test using the Observations → "+ New Order" button on a patient's page

  4. Once a lab test is ordered for a patient, the relevant cost will be linked to their account under “Billed products."

  5. To add any billed products to an invoice, select either the checkbox to the left of the relevant item(s) then select "Invoice selected" / "Invoice all," or click ••• to the right of the relevant invoice and select "Add to invoice"

You can read more about how billed items work and can be invoiced for here, under “Viewing and Invoicing for Billed Items” and read here for more information on creating invoices.
