Case Study: Georgia clinic saves 1.5 hours per day with Practice Fusion electronic ordering

Electronic ordering saves a family practitioner 1.5 hours per day

Dr. Singleton’s Georgia family practice, using Practice Fusion as its EHR, was slowed by a cumbersome lab-ordering workflow: providers handwrote lab slips and staff re-entered orders into LabCorp’s Beacon system, creating duplicated work and daily delays that strained an already busy schedule.

After switching to Practice Fusion’s electronic ordering platform, orders are placed directly from the patient chart and saved as reusable templates (often completed in four clicks). The practice now saves about 1–1.5 staff hours per day, avoided hiring additional clinical staff, improved electronic tracking of order completion and patient adherence, and simplified workflows to support higher-quality care.
