We do a point of care check and don’t bill for the service. It’s part of the nurse visit.

Clearwater does – Point of Care?? Coagulation machines - checks the protime and calls the Coumadin clinic while they are at the home to make changes if needed and set up next INR check date.

Hello,
Our agency is curious if there are any home care agencies out there that use a portable INR lab testing box, so the nurse can find out the results on the spot?
Thank you,
