Good afternoon, has anyone had any success in utilization of point of care testing with A1C to increase compliance for diabetic monitoring? We are currently embarking on an evaluation of patients getting bloodwork prior to primary care visits, vs doing a POC A1C in the office.
If you found POC testing to be efficient, what equipment are you using in the ambulatory setting?
thank you,
