Despite its importance, laboratory reporting faces several challenges:
Data Quality: Inconsistent or inaccurate data can lead to erroneous conclusions. Timeliness: Delays in reporting can hinder effective public health responses. Interoperability: Different systems and formats can complicate data integration. Privacy Concerns: Ensuring patient confidentiality while sharing data is a significant challenge. Resource Limitations: Limited resources can restrict the scope and quality of laboratory testing and reporting.
