Connections

• Laboratory system. Agree how a camp specimen’s accession number and processing state reach the team, and where results are retained.
• Participant messaging. Use the participant’s contact phone for a separately configured reminder or follow-up channel when the team needs one.
• Billing and payment systems. Agree how camp charges are invoiced and how participant payment confirmations are reconciled.
• Clinical record system. Where a clinic maintains a separate longitudinal record, map the participant and dated screening references before exchanging evidence.

Name the owner of each outside system and the identifier used for matching. Decide which system may change each status, how duplicates are detected and who handles a rejected or uncertain response. Rehearse a specimen rejection and a payment correction before operating with live data. Keep the responsible person in the loop for clinical and financial decisions.
