Dear all,
We have a private provider of NHS Health Checks in the
community who is sending POCT results (HbA1c, chol, HDL, chol/HDL) to GPs
electronically using lab read codes.
The GPs cannot differentiate between the POCT results and
the lab results.
Anyone else come across this problem and found a solution?
Anyone aware of read codes for POCT results?
best
wishes
Anne
