With the world opening up a little bit, patients starting to come in for in-person visits, and shipping just being somewhat unreliable right now -- we have some BIG news to share!

We’re excited to announce In-Office Kits are now a part of the Rupa experience! Currently, you can use Rupa with In Office-kits with two labs: US Biotek and BostonHeart.

‍This means you can use Rupa for kits that you hand to patients in-person! With just a few clicks, you’ll get a completed requisition that you can print out and hand to a patient immediately. And we’ll be there to do all the follow up, education, and results tracking.
(p.s. We’re going to be adding more labs very soon!)
‍

What is an In-Office Kit?
You can now place orders through Rupa for kits that you already have at your office. We still handle payment, and create a filled-out requisition form instantaneously.

Important things to know:

• You can use In-Office Kits whether the patient pays or you pay for the testing
• You can include kits that you want Rupa to drop-ship in the same order!
• In-Office Kits work for both blood draw kits and at-home kits for these two labs
• We can ship kits to your office to use with In-Office Kits -  just message us in the portal
• You’ll need to print the requisitions created instantly to hand to the patient with the kit (or ship out if it’s an in-house blood draw!)

• Search by Biomarkers: Effortlessly pair biomarkers like homocysteine, B12 or biomarker groupings like CBC, CMP for a comprehensive blood panel. 💪
• Compare Labs: Easily find labs offering all selected biomarkers and compare costs, including phlebotomy fees, for informed decision-making. 🧐‍
