COVID-19 LaboratoryTestPrescription

COVID-19 LaboratoryTestPrescription

When patients visit a physician, being a general practitioner, or working at a triage post or hospital, and the patient meets criteria for a test, the physician needs to complete a specific COVID-19 LaboratoryTestPrescription form, as described in section “5. Description of the COVID-19 messages”.

The COVID-19 LaboratoryTestPrescription form is a specific form because it includes detailed contact information of the patient, the contact person(s) in case of emergency (ICU), language and the type of collectivities the patient is part of. This information is important in context of contact tracing by the COVID-19 Call Center.

COVID-19 LaboratoryTestResultVariants

COVID-19 LaboratoryTestResultVariants

The federal, regional and community governments and experts have decided to expand the COVID-19 Test strategy. It concerns the use of COVID-19 tests to detect mutations and variants of the SARS-coronavirus-2 reference strain EPI_ISL_402124 . These tests will be used in a limited number of laboratories. ONLY those laboratories need to implement this message "LaboratoryTestResultVariants".

IMPORTANT: This message (available since 01/03/2021, in use as of 31.03.2021) can ONLY be used to report the results of a secondary test or analysis for Variants of Concern. Thus, the message "LaboratoryTestResultVariants" is always preceded by a COVID-19 "LaboratoryTestResult" message , either by the same laboratory or by another laboratory.

COVID-19 LaboratoryTestRequest

COVID-19 LaboratoryTestRequest

The eForm LaboratoryTestRequest is the standardized electronic message developed by Doclr and SMALS that is sent to a laboratory, which has to perform a COVID-19 test, in addition to the sample taken. This electronic message is sent to the eHealth box of the laboratory by the doctor or the sampling station that collects the sample. It can thus be sent by

  • the software package of a general practitioner who takes a sample
  • the generic web application that is available to doctors of public health organizations or occupational physicians, if these doctors take a sample
  • the software package of a sampling station or a generic web application that is available to the sampling stations, if the sample is collected at a sampling station


The detailed description of the eForm LaboratoryTestRequest goes here : NL FR.
