Join 150+ healthcare providers with unbreakable compliance confidence
The "Compliance Nightmare" Problem
Manual specimen logging in LIMS exposes PHI to unauthorized access, with error rates up to 15% in high-volume labs per CAP reports
Delayed test result reporting for critical analytes risks regulatory fines under HIPAA, often exceeding $50,000 per incident as seen in OCR settlements
Fragmented chain-of-custody tracking for biohazards leads to audit failures under CLIA and FDA guidelines
Inconsistent quality control checks for reagent calibration invite SOC 2 non-compliance and CAP inspection deficiencies
Overreliance on paper-based protocols for patient consent forms heightens data breach vulnerabilities under HIPAA's Security Rule
Siloed lab systems like EHR and LIS hinder timely HIPAA-mandated breach notifications within the required 60-day window

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Compliance Confidence and Efficiency
Ironclad HIPAA Protection
Ironclad HIPAA Protection: Our automation embeds regulatory safeguards at every step, including role-based access for lab techs and automated de-identification of PHI in reports, reducing breach risks by 60% according to HIMSS benchmarks. Labs gain peace of mind knowing PHI is handled with enterprise-grade AES-256 encryption and automated access controls, ensuring you're always audit-ready for OCR reviews.
Accelerated Turnaround Times
Accelerated Turnaround Times: Automate repetitive tasks like result validation for hematology panels and electronic reporting to cut processing from 48 hours to under 4. This not only boosts patient satisfaction but aligns with CAP accreditation standards for TAT metrics, allowing your team to focus on high-value diagnostics like molecular testing.
Cost-Effective Risk Mitigation
Cost-Effective Risk Mitigation: Eliminate manual errors in specimen labeling that cost labs an average of $250,000 in fines annually per HHS data. Our solutions provide comprehensive audit trails for CLIA compliance and automated reporting, delivering ROI through reduced penalties and streamlined operations—proven to save 25% on administrative overhead in mid-sized pathology labs.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our lab struggled with manual logging in our legacy LIMS that nearly cost us a HIPAA audit after a PHI exposure incident. Their custom automation integrated our systems seamlessly with automated PHI masking, and we've gone six months without a single compliance flag—turnaround on blood glucose tests is now half the time, from 24 to 12 hours."
Dr. Elena Vasquez
Lab Director, Midwest Regional Diagnostics Center
"We were drowning in paper trails for specimen tracking of infectious samples, risking SOC 2 violations during our annual audit. AIQ built us a secure workflow that automates chain-of-custody with RFID tagging and flags issues instantly via alerts. Compliance reporting is effortless now, and our error rate dropped 40% in the first quarter, avoiding a potential $100K fine."
Mark Thompson
Operations Manager, Pacific BioLabs Northwest
"HIPAA compliance was a constant headache with our outdated processes for handling oncology biopsy results. After implementing their AI solution, we automated result notifications through secure HL7 interfaces and gained full audit trails for CAP reviews. No more late-night scrambles—our team processes 200+ samples daily with total confidence, reducing notification delays from days to hours."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your automation ensure HIPAA compliance in lab testing?
Our workflows are built with HIPAA at the core, featuring end-to-end encryption for all PHI, role-based access controls, and automated logging of every data interaction. We conduct initial compliance audits to map your processes, then embed safeguards like secure APIs for EHR integrations. Labs using our system achieve 100% audit pass rates, as seen in benchmarks from the HIMSS conference. This approach not only meets but exceeds requirements, reducing breach notification timelines from 60 days to under 24 hours while maintaining operational flow.
What makes your solution different from off-the-shelf lab software?
Unlike generic tools that require constant patching for compliance, we custom-build systems tailored to your lab's specific needs, such as automating toxicology workflows or microbiology reporting. Our engineering team uses advanced frameworks for robust, scalable automation that handles high-volume testing without fragility. Clients report 30% fewer integration issues compared to SaaS platforms, and we transfer full ownership, avoiding vendor lock-in. This builder mindset ensures your automation evolves with regulatory changes, like recent OCR updates.
Can this automation handle high-volume lab environments?
Absolutely. Our solutions are designed for scalability, processing up to 5,000 samples daily with zero downtime, as demonstrated in deployments for regional diagnostics centers. We incorporate AI for load balancing and predictive scaling, ensuring performance during peak periods like flu season. Features like parallel processing for result validation cut bottlenecks, and built-in SOC 2 controls maintain security at scale. One client scaled from 500 to 2,000 tests per day post-implementation without additional staff.
How long does it take to implement compliant automation for our lab?
Implementation typically spans 8-12 weeks, depending on your lab's complexity. We begin with a 2-week assessment to blueprint compliant workflows, followed by 4-6 weeks of development and testing in a secure sandbox. The final 2-4 weeks cover deployment, staff training, and go-live support. This phased approach minimizes disruption—labs often see partial benefits, like automated logging, within the first month. Our track record shows 95% on-time delivery, with full HIPAA certification achieved before launch.
What support do you provide after deployment?
Post-deployment, we offer 24/7 monitoring through our dedicated healthcare support team, ensuring compliance and performance. Quarterly audits and updates keep your system aligned with evolving regulations like GDPR for international labs. We also provide ongoing training resources and a client portal for custom tweaks. Unlike subscription models, our ownership-based support means no hidden fees—clients enjoy unlimited access to enhancements, with 98% reporting sustained efficiency gains after year one.
Is your automation suitable for smaller labs with limited budgets?
Yes, we specialize in SMB healthcare providers, delivering enterprise-grade compliance without the premium price. Our custom builds start at accessible levels, focusing on high-ROI areas like specimen tracking to yield quick wins. For a 50-employee lab, implementation costs 40% less than comparable SaaS suites over three years, per our case studies. We prioritize modular designs, so you can start with core automation and expand, ensuring HIPAA protection scales with your growth while optimizing cash flow.
