Count On The Lab

Wisconsin's PATH ALONG model puts its trust in today's lab procedures.  Inpatient and community clinic providers depend on the lab values to determine proper treatment.  The PATH ALONG model looks at it this way:

Hospital lab     (transition)     Clinic lab

Dynamic component: All pending labs have been reviewed by hospital staff.

Rationale: treatment and medication doses will be most effective when they have been adjusted to the latest lab values.

Hospital discharge medications should be in line with your most recent blood lab values.  An effective dose often depends on the latest lab results.  It is not advisable to leave the hospital setting with labs pending.  Access to all the labs will give the provider the ability to determine a more comprehensive approach to recovery.  Understanding the lab schedule required for some prescribed medications can help improve a persons level of participation.  This all helps reduce the need for a rehospitalization.
