System and method for integrating a medical sequencing apparatus and laboratory system into a medical facility

A sequencing laboratory system comprising:

• a high throughput sequencer apparatus;
• and
• a computing system comprising a processor and a memory having instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• access an order comprising a request for analysis by the high throughput sequencer apparatus, wherein the order is associated with a biological sample identifier;
• schedule, for processing with the high throughput sequencer apparatus, the request;
• determine availability of result information responsive to the processing, wherein the result information comprises raw data produced by the high throughput sequencer apparatus;
• assemble the raw data into aligned data, wherein assembling comprises aligning the raw data with one or more references;
• analyze the aligned data, wherein analyzing the aligned data generates result information identifying differences between the raw data and the one or more references;
• responsive to completion of analyzing the aligned data, issue an alert to a medical facility registration system regarding completion of the order;
• and
• provide at least one of the raw data and the aligned data for storage in a data archive.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• receive, via a medical facility system, a request for analysis by a high throughput sequencer apparatus, wherein the request comprises a patient identifier;
• determine registration of delivery of a biological sample associated with the patient identifier;
• responsive to registration of delivery of the biological sample, schedule preparation of the biological sample for processing with the high throughput sequencer apparatus;
• receive acknowledgement of completion of preparation of the biological sample;
• responsive to the acknowledgement of completion of preparation of the biological sample, schedule, for processing with the high throughput sequencer apparatus, the request;
• determine availability of result information responsive to the processing, wherein the result information comprises raw data produced by the high throughput sequencer apparatus;
• analyze the result information to obtain analysis data;
• responsive to completion of analysis, issue a notification to the medical facility system regarding completion of the request, wherein the notification comprises the patient identifier;
• and
• store, for archival purposes, at least one of the raw data and the analysis data.
