What is Docus?
Docus AI is a smart platform built specifically for diagnostic labs—whether you run a direct-to-consumer service, a reference lab, or an in-house clinic. It uses artificial intelligence to automate time-consuming tasks like interpreting test results, managing follow-ups, ensuring compliance, and streamlining digital requisitions. Instead of getting bogged down in paperwork and manual reviews, your team can focus on delivering better care and growing your business.
With Docus, labs see real results: higher patient retention, fewer billing denials, faster report turnaround, and happier doctors and patients. The platform works with your existing systems—like LIS, EHR, or CRM—through simple API or HL7 integration, or you can start right away using Docus’s ready-to-go interfaces. Plus, everything is built with HIPAA, GDPR, and SOC 2-compliant security, so your data stays safe without needing personally identifiable information for core workflows.
What are the features of Docus?
- AI-Powered Interpretation: Generates clinical reports for doctors (with differential diagnoses and care plans) and easy-to-understand summaries for patients—using context from past test results for greater accuracy.
- Smart Follow-Up Recommendations: Automatically suggests next-step tests and sends timely reminders to patients, boosting retention and care continuity.
- AI Compliance Agent: Checks test orders against diagnosis codes and frequency rules to prevent denials before they happen.

- Flexible Integration: Works via API/HL7 or through no-code Docus interfaces—so you can start in minutes, not months.
