What are your testing volumes
Do you have patient door to door times?  (walk in/ walk out)

We run 100 Cepheid Xpress in our Primary and Urgent Cares - many clinics run more than one instrument depending on their volumes. All instruments are interfaced with our EMR. 

Our highest volume clinic runs about 800 4-plex and about 600 Strep tests per month during respiratory season. I'm not sure about door-to-door times, but I know most providers will not make patients wait for results and will follow up with patients that have positive results, otherwise, patients are able to see their results in our online patient portal. Occasionally, patients will call the clinic back for results.
