Practice Better is a complete nutrition practice management EHR for wellness professionals as well as a client management tool to save you time & money. It is through those shared values that we are excited to announce that we are partnering with another amazing EHR - PracticeBetter! For tests ordered through Rupa, your patient results will automatically come into your Practice Better account.

How the Practice better × Rupa integration works:

• You’ll place the lab orders in the Rupa portal as usual
• The Rupa portal will update with patient statuses (sample arrived at lab, results ETA, etc)
• All results will arrive directly in the Labs tab of your patient’s chart in Practice Better. You'll still receive them in Rupa as well.

We are excited to launch Food Plans — a magical way to automatically generate personalized food plans for your patients in under 60 seconds.

After learning how many of you spend hours and hours customizing food plans for your patients, we realized we could help. Food Plans utilizes a HIPAA-compliant version of AI to power the instant generation of the plan (it’s so magical - you gotta try it out! 🦄). You’ll still have full control to edit it so the plan is perfect for your patient.

Imagine creating plans for these cases in under 60 seconds:

• Gluten-free, dairy-free, allergic to coconut, kosher, and needs 2 meals for intermittent fasting 16:8
• SIBO protocol, 3 meals a day with snacks in between that are easy to travel with and don’t need refrigeration
• Plant based diet, seasonal summer foods, loves mediterranean food, simple to cook

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Reference Guide!

It is designed to make it easier than ever to find the information you need about lab testing. With the Reference Guide, you can quickly and easily access lab tests, lab companies, health categories, bundles, lab test comparisons, live classes, bootcamps, magazine articles, and podcast episodes - all in one place!

We’re thrilled to bring this to you, and we can’t wait to hear what you think! Check it out today and let us know what you think!

In a busy clinic, we have learned that sometimes our practitioners want to designate someone else to manage their order related emails, updates and questions. Now, we have a way to do that! 

Introducing Notification Settings: Practitioners can choose a new point of contact to receive their order-related updates.

Navigate to your Clinic Settings, where anyone within your clinic can update your preferences.

Whether you prefer all notifications to go to one email, or whether each practitioner has their own staff member, your settings are customizable. Both practitioners and staff have access to make these updates.

We know that summarizing your patient’s results and building a treatment plan can be time-consuming – that’s why we just launched our new Results Summary tool! 

Results Summary allows you to pull key insights from your patient’s lab tests and share simplified, visual, and actionable plans directly from Rupa. 🤩

Once your client’s results are in, you can:

• Highlight relevant biomarkers with visualizations
• Customize your reference ranges and biomarker analysis, optimizing for personalized outcomes
• Add treatment plan tasks such as supplements, lifestyle, and nutrition recommendations
• Document your patient’s symptoms, tying them directly to data-backed results 

We're excited to announce the launch of LabShops – a new way for you to grow your business and improve access to testing for your clients! With LabShops, you can create a custom e-commerce page to make testing available to your practice's community or educational program participants.

Here are some of the features you'll have access to with LabShops:

• Access to over 3000 lab tests through a signing physician.
• Custom fees and get paid out – you can add your own custom fee to each test or bundle and get paid out via Stripe once results come in for each client.
• Monetize your content by offering testing to your course participants and increasing the value of your educational content.
• Branded and custom to you – you can include your own logo, description, and video on the LabShop so your clients know the testing is recommended by you!
• Sleek and modern experience for your clients – we handle the logistics of the tests, so you can focus on growing your business.

This is just the beginning of what LabShops has to offer – we can't wait to see how you'll use it to scale your impact and improve access to testing for your clients.

Introducing our Order Details page for patients

We’ve designed the Order Details page as a tool to reduce admin burden on your practice. No more fielding questions from patients about orders!

Patients now receive a link to a login page where they can

• Download receipts and superbills
• View their results (after you release them)

‍

How does it work?

After you place an order and the patient completes payment, the patient receives an email with a link to their Order Details page. They can access that page by entering their last name and date of birth - no need to create an account! Once on the details page, they can view the status of their order, and download receipts, requisitions, superbills and results as the order progresses.
