Overview

What is laboratory management software?

Laboratory management software, also called a LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System), replaces registers, hand-written labels and typed reports with one connected system. A patient is registered once. The sample gets a barcode. The analyzer sends its results straight into the software. A pathologist validates them, and the patient receives the report on WhatsApp, often before they reach home.

Techohash LIMS is built in Islamabad for diagnostic labs, collection centres and hospital laboratories across Pakistan. Small single-room labs and multi-branch reference labs use the same software. You switch on the features you need today and add more as you grow.

It works as a standalone lab software or as part of Techohash hospital management software (HIMS), where lab orders arrive directly from OPD, IPD, ER and ICU.

Headline features

QR code, WhatsApp API & machine integration

The three features labs in Pakistan ask for most, explained in detail.

1. Machine (analyzer) integration: ASTM & HL7 interfacing

Machine integration connects your lab analyzers directly to the software, so results are never typed by hand. Techohash LIMS supports the two standard lab communication protocols, ASTM (E1381/E1394) and HL7, over serial (RS-232) or network (TCP/IP) connections.

Uni-directional interfacing: the machine sends results and the software matches them to the right patient using the sample barcode.
Bi-directional interfacing: the software also sends the test order to the machine. Scan the barcoded tube and the analyzer already knows which tests to run. No manual programming.
Works with many types of analyzer: haematology (CBC), chemistry, immunoassay / hormones, electrolytes, urine analyzers, HbA1c, coagulation and more. Tell us your machine model and we confirm before you buy.
Parameter mapping: each machine code (e.g. WBC, HGB, GLU) maps to your test catalogue, units and reference ranges.
Flags carried over: high/low and machine error flags appear on screen for the technologist.
Results wait for approval: machine results never print on their own. A technologist or pathologist reviews and validates them first.

Benefit: no typing mistakes, faster reports and less work for technologists, especially in busy morning hours.

2. WhatsApp API integration: automatic report delivery

Techohash LIMS connects to the official WhatsApp Business API. Messages go out from your lab's own verified business number, not a personal phone.

Report on WhatsApp: once a report is validated, the patient automatically receives a PDF on WhatsApp with your letterhead and the pathologist's signature.
Registration message: the patient receives a receipt with their lab number, tests booked and expected report time.
Partial reports: send ready results first (e.g. CBC today, culture in 3 days), then the final report.
Doctor copy: the referring doctor can receive a copy of the report automatically.
Home sampling alerts: collection time and the phlebotomist's details are sent to the patient.
Payment reminders: due amounts and corporate or B2B statements can be sent on WhatsApp.
SMS & email backup: a report link can also go by SMS or email if the patient does not use WhatsApp.

Benefit: no queue at the report counter, fewer phone calls and happier patients who come back to your lab.

3. QR code & barcode: sample tracking and report verification

QR code on every report: anyone (patient, doctor, embassy, employer or insurer) can scan the QR code to open the original report on your lab's secure page. If the printout was edited, the difference is visible immediately. This protects your lab's name from fake reports.
Online report download: patients scan the QR code on their receipt to view or download the report when it is ready.
Barcode / QR sample labels: each tube or container gets a printed label with the lab number, patient name, test and sample type. There is one label per container, so samples never get mixed up.
Sample tracking: every stage is time-stamped (collected, received in lab, processed, validated, delivered), so you always know where a sample is.
Sample rejection: haemolysed or insufficient samples are rejected with a reason, and a recollection request is sent.

Benefit: trust in your reports, zero sample mix-ups and a complete audit trail.

FAQ

Laboratory management software: common questions

What is the price of laboratory management software in Pakistan?

Techohash LIMS costs Rs 1,500 per month, Rs 20,000 per year, or Rs 1,00,000 for a lifetime licence. All plans include the full feature set, including QR-verified reports, WhatsApp integration and machine interfacing.

Can the software connect with my lab machines?

Yes. Techohash LIMS interfaces with analyzers that use the ASTM or HL7 protocol over serial or network connections, in both uni-directional and bi-directional modes. Share your machine model and we will confirm before you buy.

How does WhatsApp report delivery work?

The software uses the official WhatsApp Business API. When a pathologist validates a report, the PDF is sent automatically to the patient's WhatsApp from your lab's business number. Message charges set by Meta apply.

What is the QR code on the report for?

The QR code opens the original report on your lab's secure online page. Anyone can scan it to check the report is genuine and has not been edited, which protects your lab from fake reports.

Does the lab software work without internet?

Yes. With the lifetime licence the software is installed on your own computer or server and works fully offline. Internet is only needed for WhatsApp and online report features.

Is it suitable for a small lab or collection centre?

Yes. The Rs 1,500 monthly plan is designed for small labs, and the same software scales to multi-branch labs with collection centres.
