PicMed offers a configurable biometric screening test menu for employers that want practical, clinically grounded ways to support workforce health. Programs can combine onsite fingerstick testing with venous blood draws, giving benefits teams a better match for their measures, result timing, and reporting needs.
How it works
- Choose the measures: we help map core and optional tests to your wellness goals, so your program collects information your team can use.
- Select the collection method: we scope fingerstick, venous draw, or both, so the clinical design fits the selected tests and result workflow.
- Staff the event: we provide W-2 clinical staff and local RN/LPN partners, so participants receive a consistent onsite experience.
- Deliver results: applicable CLIA-waived point-of-care components can provide instant results while venous samples follow the laboratory workflow, so employees understand what to expect.
- Report and follow up: MyPicMed supports secure individual results and aggregate reporting, so the event can support employee action and program review.
