Lab Requisition Process Experience Survey
Measures how smoothly clinical and lab staff can submit, track, and resolve issues with lab test requisitions — covering form clarity, turnaround time, and error rates. An AI follow-up reconstructs exactly what went wrong on a recent problematic requisition instead of relying on vague complaints, giving lab operations teams concrete fixes to prioritize.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.
Which best describes your role?
- Physician
- Nurse or clinical staff
- Laboratory technician
- Administrative or scheduling staff
- Other
In the last 30 days, how often have you submitted a lab requisition?
- Daily
- A few times a week
- About once a week
- A few times a month
- Rarely or never
Rate the current lab requisition process on each of the following.
- Clarity of the requisition form or order-entry screen
- Accuracy of the test codes and required fields
- Specimen labeling and collection instructions
- Turnaround time from submission to results
- Integration with your EHR or lab information system
In the last 30 days, how often has a lab requisition you submitted been rejected, delayed, or sent back for correction?
Rank these issues from the biggest problem to the smallest in your day-to-day work with lab requisitions.
- Missing or incomplete patient information
- Illegible or unclear handwriting
- Incorrect test codes selected
- Specimen labeling errors
- Delayed turnaround time
- Duplicate or redundant orders
Reconstruct the most recent time a lab requisition you submitted was rejected, delayed, or needed correction: what test was ordered, exactly what went wrong, and who or what caused the delay (form design, missing info, system issue, staffing). Ask what specifically would have prevented it, and if they say the process is generally smooth, probe for the one step they still find annoying or slow.
You have 100 points to allocate across ways to improve the lab requisition process. Give more points to what would help most.
- Staff training on the requisition process
- Better order-entry forms or software
- EHR/lab system integration improvements
- Additional lab staffing
- Standardized test code reference guides

What type of facility do you primarily work in?
- Hospital
- Outpatient clinic
- Independent or reference lab
- Long-term care facility

- Prefer not to say

Why this template
What this template is built to do — we found no directly comparable template from other survey tools to review.
What sets it apart
- Includes an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs exactly what happened on a respondent's most recent rejected requisition, replacing vague 'it was frustrating' complaints with a step-by-step account lab ops can act on
- Pairs a matrix rating of form clarity, turnaround, and error rates with a numeric question on actual hours-to-result and an opinion-scale on rejection frequency, so perception and objective throughput are captured side by side
- Uses ranking and a 100-point constant-sum allocation to force respondents to prioritize which fixes (form design, turnaround, communication, etc.) matter most rather than rating everything as important
- Screens by role, facility type, and tenure so lab ops can segment feedback by who is actually submitting and reworking requisitions, then rolls everything into an auto-generated report
