If you’ve been using Rupa, you already know we send your patients emails with key updates: ship dates, instructions, when samples arrive at the lab, and more. But now we’re super-charging your patient's instructions. 🚀

‍
Now when you place an order for your patient, your patient will receive an email with a link to step-by-step instructions on what to do next.

This page gives your patient detailed instructions on:

• Completing their tests (with key details & videos!)
• Filling out requisitions
• How to schedule their blood draw

See a “live” example of a Patient Instructions Page!

⭐️ Bonus: You will be able to access each of your patient’s custom instruction pages from the Order Events section in the Rupa portal!

Here’s to more clarity, ease, and simplicity with lab testing for your patients! 🙌

Rupa Health has joined forces with Axle Health to offer a convenient mobile phlebotomy service🩸 for your patients in 17 US metro areas: Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Inland Empire, Los Angeles, Miami, Orange County, Phoenix, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Tampa, Washington DC. 

What does this mean for you and your patients?

 🏡  Phlebotomy at Their Doorstep: Your patients can now schedule a skilled phlebotomist to bring their service to their home location at a time that suits their schedule.

🔄  Flexible Options: If your patients prefer not to use Axle's mobile service, Rupa will provide a list of local phlebotomy options for them to choose from.

Patients can pay the $80 blood draw fee directly at checkout. This means a more streamlined experience, allowing your patients to take care of all necessary payments in one seamless transaction.

In a busy clinic, we have learned that sometimes our practitioners want to designate someone else to manage their order related emails, updates and questions. Now, we have a way to do that! 

Introducing Notification Settings: Practitioners can choose a new point of contact to receive their order-related updates.

Navigate to your Clinic Settings, where anyone within your clinic can update your preferences.

Whether you prefer all notifications to go to one email, or whether each practitioner has their own staff member, your settings are customizable. Both practitioners and staff have access to make these updates.
