Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
Parkview Kosciusko Hospital and the Parkview Center for Healthy Living invite area residents in need of lab testing to sign up for Check-Up Day at the hospital, 1355 Mariners Drive, Warsaw, on Feb. 4.
Check-Up Day allows local residents to obtain common lab tests at a reduced cost. The event will take place from 7 to 9:30 a.m. on the hospital's lower level in conference rooms A and B.
Participants have a choice between two blood test packages.
The green package includes a lipid profile and glycohemoglobin A1C. Also, any of these tests can be added for an extra charge:
• Comprehensive metabolic profile (CMP), Complete blood count (CBC), Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) or Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) for men.
The diamond package includes the two tests in the green package plus the four optional tests listed above. Individuals who choose either package can also add any of these tests:
• Iron, Vitamin B12 or Vitamin D
Either package requires a 10- to 12-hour fast before the appointment. During fasting, it is OK to drink water to avoid dehydration and take regular medications as prescribed.
Apart from the packages, three single tests are available. Fasting is not required for these tests:
• Glycohemoglobin A1C, TSH or PSA
