Automated LigoLab Daily Lab Volume Digest
Every morning, WebRun opens LigoLab, totals the prior day's case volume by department and case type, and posts a concise throughput digest to an internal Slack channel so lab leadership starts the day with a clear picture of yesterday's output.
How do I automatically get a daily lab volume digest from LigoLab each morning?
WebRun opens LigoLab every morning and tallies the prior day's case volume by department, then posts a concise Slack digest showing cases received, resulted, and still pending. Lab leadership starts each day with a clear throughput snapshot and an automatic flag when any department's pending volume is above average.
- Leadership sees prior-day throughput by 8 AM without logging into LigoLab
- Backlog spikes flagged automatically when pending volume exceeds the 7-day average
- No PHI in the digest, only aggregate counts safe for internal Slack sharing
Built for pathology lab directors · laboratory operations managers · clinical lab leadership

Questions, answered
Does the digest include any patient information?
No. The digest contains only aggregate counts by department and case type. No accession numbers, patient identifiers, or PHI are included in the Slack post.
Can it compare today's volume to a historical baseline?
Yes. WebRun can flag departments where the pending volume exceeds the prior 7-day average, giving leadership an early signal when a backlog is building.
Can it cover weekends and holidays?
Yes. The digest runs every day on its schedule, including weekends. If volume on a given day is zero, it posts a zero-count summary so the absence of data is visible, not silent.
