We are so excited to announce that Immunosciences, an experienced lab in immunology and autoimmunity, is our latest lab partner on Rupa!
Immunosciences' Autoimmune Profile-Comprehensive can help in the early detection and identification of autoimmune disorders through the measurement of predictive antibodies, some of which can appear in the body up to years before the active onset of the disease. This gives practitioners a window of opportunity to ameliorate, halt or even prevent the development of an autoimmune disorder that could mean years, or even a lifetime, of suffering.

Phlebotomists are critical to the lab testing process, but it’s not always easy to find them. This is especially true now when so many of you are operating remote or telehealth-first practices. If you’re operating in Arizona, it’s not easy to know about phlebotomy options if your patient is located in Wisconsin.
That’s why Rupa has launched its searchable phlebotomy database - so you can easily find phlebotomists who can draw your patients’ blood in their geographic area.
Rupa has built a phlebotomy network across the United States to ensure phlebotomy options are available for most patients. You can use this database to find where they are and see the phlebotomy options that we send patients via e-mail after you place an order with us.
If you want to send all of your patients to a specific phlebotomist, you can always set a preferred phlebotomist (scroll to the bottom of this page). In this case, we’ll direct all of your patients to your phlebotomist of choice.
We’re always looking to expand our phlebotomy services - if you don’t see a phlebotomist in your patients’ area, send us a message in our portal and we’ll be glad to help.
It seems like lightyears ago to us...things move fast around here :)...but back in August, we made it possible for you to schedule out lab orders for future dates & more easily re-order tests for patients.
We got some feedback from you all (thank you so much - we couldn’t do our jobs without you) and we’re now making this feature more accessible.
Previously, you could only schedule out a future lab order for orders that had already been placed. But, now, you can schedule out any order of your choosing right in the checkout flow.
Watch the video below or see the text and screenshots beneath to see how it works.
How does it work?
When you check out a lab for a patient, you’ll see a new feature right at the top of the checkout screen. By clicking the date, Rupa will open a calendar for you that allows you to schedule the order for a future date.
Select the date of your choosing then check out as normal. Your order will be sent to the patient via e-mail on the date you’ve selected. Voila! Note that patients will only be asked for payment on the date of your scheduled order, not before.
The statuses of your scheduled orders also appear on your dashboard, so you can keep track of what’s scheduled.
Give it a try! Schedule an Order.
Sometimes, you need to add a little something extra to your lab order: custom patient instructions.
By adding a note to your patients during checkout, you can let them know if there are any special instructions when completing their lab. Your notes appear front & center when your patient receives e-mail instructions from us.
Now, we’re letting you save your “notes to patients” to make it easier to retrieve custom instructions that you send to multiple patients. This way, you won’t need to re-type custom instructions - they’ll be saved for you for quick retrieval.
How do you save notes to patients?
Go to settings and click on “saved notes to patient”. Here, you will create your snippet (aka note), add a title, and click save.
When you want to checkout your next order, click “insert snippet” to add any one of your pre-saved notes. Once you complete checkout, your saved note will appear front & center in the patient instructions e-mail that Rupa sends your patient.
Navigate to your settings to create a saved patient note today.
Every now and then, labs have shipping & results delays. We certainly never want it to happen. But when it does, we want to make sure you’re informed so you can plan accordingly.
That’s why we’re creating more transparency around lab delays...in multiple ways.
You’ll be notified in two ways:
You’ll be notified in several ways:
If you’re effected by a delay, please feel free to message us in Rupa. We’ll be happy to answer any of your questions.
We get MANY questions from Rupa practitioners about specialty lab testing & running a practice. How do I interpret this test? What tests can I run for patients with hormone issues? How do I start a practice on my own?
That’s why we’ve assembled some of the best minds in functional medicine & specialty labs to bring you answers to the above questions and more...all within Rupa. Free live classes are now available in Rupa.
With free live classes, you can learn how to interpret labs better, understand what testing is right for you and your patients, and learn how to run your best practice.
