What to expect from your In-Person Examination
CliniCareRx offers a variety of prescription
medications that requires a copy of a recent exam to
be kept on file for physician review and
consultation. When scheduling an in-person
examination through CliniCareRx, a professional
examiner from ITS. (Integrated Testing Services)
will be scheduled to complete the exam. ITS
examiners are trained medical professionals who will
handle your exam in a courteous and discreet manner.
You will be contacted by an examiner from ITS to
schedule an appointment at your earliest
convenience. The examination may take place at your
home or office, ITS facility, or other convenient
location. When the examiner contacts you, they will
discuss exactly what will be done. Possibilities
include:
-
Paramedical Report
A two page questionnaire asking for complete
medical history, vital signs (height, weight,
blood pressure, pulse and, for men only, chest
measurements) and a urine specimen.
-
Blood Profile
Blood will be drawn from your arm or your finger
as required by CliniCareRx. A urine specimen
also is collected. Only sterile, disposable
needles and supplies are used. Your blood will
be sent to a laboratory designated by
CliniCareRx. Results are sent directly from the
lab to CliniCareRx and attached to your medical
information and order. ITS never learns any test
results.
-
Electrocardiogram
Also known as an EKG or an ECG, this is a
painless procedure which requires that
electrodes be placed on bare skin on your chest,
arms and lower legs. You will need to lie flat,
in a relaxed position in a location without any
large electrical appliances running. (Some
appliances can cause distortions in the EKG
tracings.) Privacy will be required as you will
need to partially disrobe.
-
Physician Exam
In addition to the elements in the paramedical
report, the doctor will also perform a brief
physical exam which will require you to disrobe.
The parameters of the exam are defined by
CliniCareRx.
-
Treadmill EKG
This is not a mobile test and if needed, ITS
will schedule an appointment at a clinic
convenient to you.
-
X-rays
This is not a mobile test and if needed, ITS
will schedule an appointment at a clinic
convenient to you.
