1. A diagnostic test analysis system comprising:

  • at least one processor;

    an in-vitro diagnostic device including;

    a sensor positioned to detect the presence or absence of one or more lines on a lateral flow assay test strip following application of a biological sample to the lateral flow assay test strip, the in-vitro diagnostic device configured to generate a first test result of a diagnostic test based on a current testing protocol and data from the sensor indicating the presence or absence of the one or more lines, andat least one network communication device configured to enable a telemetric connection over a publicly accessible network; and

    at least one memory device which stores a plurality of instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to operate with the in-vitro diagnostic device and the at least one network communication device to;

    receive, from the in-vitro diagnostic device, data indicating the first test result of the diagnostic test based on the current testing protocol,receive, by the in-vitro diagnostic device via the telemetric connection over the publicly accessible network, additional data from at least one remote network element remote from the in-vitro diagnostic device, andgenerate, by the in-vitro diagnostic device, a second test result for the diagnostic test based, at least in part, on verifying the first test result of the diagnostic test using the additional data.
