Paramedical Exam                                    

Performed by certified medical personnel who have been approved to examine for your insurance company.  Please be prepared to provide your complete medical history including dates, problems, treatments, medications, outcomes, as well as names and addresses of all doctors consulted.  Exam includes height, weight, blood pressure, pulse, and urine specimen collection.   If possible, avoid caffeine and tobacco for 2-3 hours prior to the exam.

Medical Exam                                            

Same as a paramedical exam, but performed by a licensed physician and includes a basic medical exam.  Genital, rectal, and breast exams will not be performed on mobile examinations.  Takes about 15-20 minutes to complete.

Executive Exam                                         

Examination performed by a licensed physician in the Physicians ExamOne offices.  Not completed on a mobile basis.

Blood Collection                                        

Less than 1 oz. of blood will be drawn from a vein in the clients’ arm.  A urine specimen will also be collected.   Fasting is recommended for 3-4 hours prior (water is OK) unless directed otherwise.   Do not fast if you are diabetic, pregnant, or have any other medical condition which would make fasting not recommended.  The insurance company determines which tests will be run, but in most cases includes an HIV (AIDS) test as well as a full blood/urine profile.  It generally includes a nicotine and drug screen as well.   Takes about 5 minutes to complete.

Dried Blood Spot                                        

Same as blood collection above, but blood is taken from the fingertip by use of lancet.

Saliva Collection                                        

A swab will be placed in your mouth for 2 minutes.  It tests for HIV and nicotine.

Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG)                    

This is a recording of the heart’s electrical impulses and causes no discomfort.  Adhesive strips are placed on your arms, ankles, and chest.  Please avoid the use of lotions, oils, and skin creams.  Females should wear a bra (will be loosened but not removed), a blouse that unbuttons completely in the front, and should not wear pantyhose.  Takes about 5 minutes to complete.
