Dear Doctor/s, Of late we are encouraged to use pathological services like various packages by reputed Labs & other pathological services with free home collection of blood & urine sample?. My only concern is the accuracy of the report. Since they collect the sample & move round to collect few more samples & before particular time deposit the collected samples with the Lab. Due to exposure to heat & moisture samples especially blood may loose it's freshness & consequently give variable results/reports which leads confusion to Doctors & patient. please Advice whether it is advisable to use these facilities only in emergency than normal including The annual/routine medical checkups. Frank opinion requested. Thanks Nagesh Rao.
