Abstract
Features and aspects provide systems that advantageously enhance decisioning related to diagnostic testing by providing a mapping engine that interacts with disparate data processing systems to provide mappings of data elements from stored information for various types of diagnostic tests, including molecular tests. The mappings are stored in a decision support map file and can be referenced when molecular tests are ordered by diagnosticians to improve consistency, speed, and efficiency. Additionally, automated decisioning regarding review of molecular test orders can be provided by the system.
