The industry has a reliability problem

Courier failure isn’t rare. For most labs, it’s every week.

Industry surveys of hundreds of lab professionals show 99% are impacted by medical couriers in a typical week — and facilities quietly absorb the cost in overtime, duplicate STAT fees, and repeat patient draws. We built LabPath Logistics to end exactly that.

84%

hit a courier delay or error last month that compromised patient results

61%

of lab leaders lost an irreplaceable specimen to a courier error in one year

72%

had to re-collect specimens — forcing patients back for repeat draws

48%

of lab staff stayed late waiting on a courier that didn't show on time

What we move

Logistics Capabilities

Four planned service lanes — STAT, scheduled routes, dedicated capacity, and pharmacy & home-health delivery — on one compliant network built for clinical transport.

Dispatch workflow

STAT Delivery01
Production-readiness commitments

Controls we can prove before launch

Local tests prove the workflow. Contracts, integrations, operational drills, and live evidence turn that workflow into a service commitment.

SLA terms belong in the contract

Pickup windows, communication timing, and any service-credit remedies become commitments only when written into an executed facility agreement.

No fixed-minute pickup promise

The STAT workflow is designed for immediate dispatch eligibility. A real ETA requires a live courier assignment and production location integration; traffic physics still applies.

Incident response must be exercised

Typed incident records exist in the product. Staffing, notification timing, escalation paths, and response evidence remain production-readiness gates.

Server-authoritative booking quote

The backend produces the booking quote and preserves the accepted amount. The website estimator is nonbinding and its published rate card still needs reconciliation before launch.

Custody evidence before exports

Opaque package-QR scans, timestamped custody events, receiver attestation, and signature are locally verified. Production photos, device telemetry, and PDF export remain release-gated.

Commercial terms stay explicit

The current business plan is month-to-month with no planned volume minimum. The executed agreement is authoritative once live contracting begins.

Published performance, from month one. Incumbents self-report their on-time rates. We’ll publish ours — monthly, unedited, on this site — starting with our first month of operations. If we want your specimens, you deserve our scoreboard.

Why facilities choose us

Your specimens deserve more than a gig driver.

A dedicated-driver operating model

The launch standard requires vetted, role-trained couriers, approved vehicles, package segregation, and material-appropriate containers. Those controls need current evidence before a live contract.

Privacy minimized in the data model

There are no patient fields, package QRs are opaque, and notifications carry only an order reference and status. An executed BAA and operational safeguards remain facility-by-facility launch gates.

One dispatch, one point of accountability

The product is designed around an accountable dispatch relationship and offer-based courier assignment. Service levels and remedies become commitments only in an executed agreement.

Built for the Texas Medical Center corridor

The product, address bounds, and route concepts are designed for the Texas Medical Center and Greater Houston. Live staging and response performance still require operational proof.

From the Texas Medical Center to suburban clinics and independent labs, the workflow supports STAT direct routing without a fixed-minute pickup promise. Production routing and driver-location integrations remain in rollout.

PHI-Free Notification Contract

Tests keep alert copy to an order reference and status. SMS, email, and push providers are not integrated yet.

Cloud Data Access logging and an archive path are configured; staging and production workflow evidence remain cutover gates.

Questions, answered

Frequently Asked Questions

What Houston facilities should verify before trusting a dedicated medical-courier platform.

HIPAA compliance is an operating and contractual posture, not a federal courier certification. A facility should verify the executed BAA, workforce training, access controls, incident process, and evidence for the specific service. LabPath's technical design has no patient fields, uses opaque package QRs, and keeps PHI out of notifications; production legal and operating controls remain launch gates.
