Adam, I still throw my weight behind the granular data and direct import. Every once in a while, it is really important to be able to compare a lab test over time, and it is almost impossible to do with a bunch of faxes. With the Quest import, it is the push of a button. It is 4 button clicks per lab with Quest import (select lab to import, Import lab, sign off, confirm), while importing a fax with UpDox is 7 steps (Attach lab, select patient(typing part of name), click to select from list, click send to EMR, select folder (if lab is not default), click signoff, enter). 4 clicks is better than 7, and the data is usable.
