Lab management software built for Indian labs
Uyirly is a cloud laboratory information management system (LIMS) that runs your diagnostic lab or hospital pathology department end to end — from the moment a sample is collected to the moment a verified report reaches the patient — with billing and patient records already connected. It’s the same lab management system a standalone pathology lab and a busy hospital lab can both run.
- Your analyzers connected — results arrive without being typed
- Sample tracking from collection to verified result, no lost tubes
- Test catalogue with reference ranges, panels and per-test pricing
- Auto-formatted PDF reports, delivered by WhatsApp or patient portal
- Lab billing and patient records built in — nothing re-entered
What is lab management software (LIMS)?
Lab management software — a laboratory information management system (LIMS), or LIS when people mean the clinical-lab version — runs a diagnostic lab or hospital pathology department end to end. It exists to make one thing impossible: a sample getting lost, or a result reaching the wrong patient. Uyirly gives every sample a barcoded identity the instant it is collected, then tracks it through accessioning, testing and verification, so at any moment you know exactly where a test is and who touched it. That living audit trail is the one thing a paper register or an Excel sheet can never give a lab.

What runs inside the lab module
Everything a lab needs is in one place, and it all reads from the same test master and the same patient record.

Samples tracked by barcode
Sample tracking
Most of a lab’s real risk sits between collection and result — the tube that gets mislabelled, the sample nobody logged. Uyirly follows each specimen by barcode through every stage, flags anything overdue, and ties the final value back to the exact tube it came from. Technicians stop hunting for samples and start clearing the worklist.
The test catalogue
Every test carries its reference ranges, units, sample type, method and price, and tests bundle into panels, profiles and health packages. After that, ordering, reporting and billing all read from the same definition — so a CBC or an LFT is priced, collected and reported the same way every time.
Result entry and verification
Technicians enter values against the reference ranges, which flag high and low results automatically, and a pathologist verifies before anything is released. Nothing goes out unsigned.
Reports and delivery
The moment a value is verified, Uyirly formats it into a clean, letterhead PDF — ranges in place, the verifying pathologist named — and delivers it over WhatsApp or a patient portal. No second trip for a printout.
Lab billing
Walk-in patients are billed in one screen, and tests ordered from a consultation post to the patient’s existing bill — so the money and the tests never drift apart.
Your analyzers, connected
This is the part most laboratories ask about last and regret first. If your haematology and biochemistry analyzers are not connected, a technician reads numbers off one screen and types them into another — twenty numbers for a single blood count, every time, with a transcription error waiting in each one. Uyirly connects them. You download a small Windows program, install it on the computer beside your machines, read out an eight-character code once, and give your analyzer engineer an address. After that, results appear on the patient’s record by themselves. There is nothing to set up per instrument: the machine announces what it is and Uyirly recognises it.
It keeps working when your internet does not
The program runs in your laboratory, not in the cloud, for one reason: an analyzer transmits a result once and then forgets it. If nothing is listening at that moment, the measurement is gone for good. Every result is written to your own computer the instant it arrives — before any attempt to send it anywhere — and uploaded when the connection returns. A broadband outage costs you nothing but the delay.
A machine can produce a result. It cannot release one.
Every analyzer result lands unverified and waits for a person in the laboratory to authorise it, and the report names who did. That is NABL 112’s own requirement, and it is the difference between automation and unattended reporting. Correct a value afterwards and the authorisation is withdrawn automatically — a result that has changed has not been checked by anybody yet.
Which analyzers we can connect
If the machine has a data port — network, serial cable or a file export — we will connect it. That covers most of what Indian laboratories run, including Mindray and Transasia/Erba. What we cannot connect is an analyzer whose only output is its own built-in printer, and we would rather say that before you buy than after. Send us the model and we will confirm. One caution that is not about us: some manufacturers charge separately for the data-output module on their own instrument. Ask your vendor about it while you are still negotiating the machine.
Scanners too, over DICOM
The same program handles imaging. Your ultrasound, X-ray or CT console pulls the day’s worklist from Uyirly — so the radiographer picks the patient from a list instead of typing the name, and the study comes back matched to the right person. Images are received and stored, and can be opened in the browser without any viewer to install.
What NABL assessors ask for
Three of the things an assessor looks for are built in rather than bolted on, because each one is a record you cannot reconstruct later.
The critical value register
When a result is critical, a red flag on a report is neither the communication nor the documentation NABL 112 §5.8 asks for. Uyirly opens an entry that stays open until somebody records who they telephoned, when, and how. Nothing is sent automatically — a critical result is communicated by a person picking up a phone, and pretending software did it is exactly what an assessor is looking for. If the value is corrected to something normal before the call is made, the entry is withdrawn and the reason kept.
Reports grouped by discipline
Results print grouped under the NABL discipline that produced them — Clinical Biochemistry, Haematology, Microbiology and Serology, and the rest — rather than in the order they happened to be entered.
Barcodes that match the tube
Tube labels carry the accession number as a scannable barcode, wristbands carry the IP number, and both print at the exact physical size the stationery expects. The sample on the bench and the record on the screen are the same object.
The order-to-report workflow
Here is a test’s full journey through Uyirly — the same lab workflow whether it is a walk-in or a ward order.
- 1
Order
A doctor orders the test from a consultation, or a walk-in customer is registered and billed at the counter.
- 2
Collect
The sample is collected and barcoded, so it can never be mixed up with another patient’s.
- 3
Process
The lab enters results against reference ranges on a live worklist that shows what is pending, in process and done.
- 4
Verify
A pathologist checks and signs off. Only verified results are released.
- 5
Deliver
The letterhead PDF report goes to the patient by WhatsApp or portal, and the charge is already on the bill.
A LIMS vs a paper / Excel lab
Here is what changes the day a lab moves off registers and spreadsheets.
| Paper / Excel lab | With Uyirly LIMS | |
|---|---|---|
| Samples | Handwritten labels, easy to mix up | Barcoded, tracked at every step |
| Analyzer results | Read off the machine and retyped | Arrive by themselves, nothing typed |
| Worklist | No live view of what is pending | Live pending / in-process / verified |
| Reference ranges | Checked by memory | High/low flagged automatically |
| Critical values | A phone call nobody wrote down | Open register until the call is recorded |
| Reports | Typed by hand | Auto-formatted letterhead PDF, by discipline |
| Delivery | Patient returns for a printout | WhatsApp / patient portal |
| Billing | Separate register | On the patient’s bill automatically |
From a single pathology lab to a full hospital lab
A standalone diagnostic lab uses Uyirly for walk-in registration, sample tracking, reporting and billing on its own. A hospital pathology department uses the very same lab management system inside the wider platform, so tests ordered from the wards and OPD flow in without re-registering the patient and every charge lands on the patient’s bill. You do not outgrow it — the lab you set up today is the lab that scales.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between LIMS and LIS?
They overlap heavily. A LIS (laboratory information system) is the clinical-lab term for the system that manages patient samples, orders and results in a diagnostic or hospital lab; LIMS (laboratory information management system) is the broader term, also used in research and industrial labs. For an Indian diagnostic lab or hospital pathology department the two words describe the same thing Uyirly provides: sample tracking, a test catalogue, result entry, reporting and billing.
Can it work for a standalone diagnostic lab as well as a hospital lab?
Yes. A standalone pathology or diagnostic lab uses it for walk-in registration, sample tracking, reporting and billing on its own. A hospital lab uses the same module inside the full system, so tests ordered from OPD and IPD flow in without re-registering the patient and charges join the patient’s bill.
Does the lab software handle report delivery to patients?
Yes. Verified results are formatted into a letterhead PDF automatically and can be delivered by WhatsApp or a patient portal, so patients get their reports without a second trip to the lab.
Does it include lab billing?
Yes. Lab billing is built in — walk-in patients are billed in one screen, and tests ordered from a consultation post to the patient’s existing bill, so the money and the tests never drift apart.
