LIS Functionality Assessment Toolkit
 Note:
It is the primary goal of Association for Pathology Informatics to ensure wide dissemination of these documents. We are thus making them available for download to everyone. However, we encourage those who are not currently members of the Association for Pathology Informatics to join the organization and take advantage of all of the benefits of membership.
Toolkit Components
- Using the LIS Toolkit: A Methodology for Assessing Functionality and Enabling Comparisons Among Competing Systems: PDF
“White paper” providing a narrative summary of the LIS Functionality Assessment Toolkit. It describes the rationale, background, as well as descriptions of the various components of the Toolkit.
- Appendix I: LIS Functionality Statements: Excel / PDF
850 statements for assessing the functionality of an LIS.
- Appendix II: LIS Scenarios: Excel / PDF
Possible scenarios for managing on-site live demonstrations. These scenarios are not exhaustive but will lead the user into specific areas of functionality that can only be demonstrated on a fully implemented LIS.
- Appendix III: Total Cost of Ownership Elements: Word / PDF
Suggested elements for developing a “total cost of ownership” (TCO) worksheet pertaining to an LIS under consideration. The document will assist the user in estimating the total cost of owning a specific LIS and will facilitate comparison of TCO between different systems.
