Question: 1 / 400

Which element is NOT typically included in a laboratory results report form?

Patient's demographic information

Physician's home address and phone number

The inclusion of a physician's home address and phone number in a laboratory results report form is unnecessary and generally not relevant to the laboratory's purpose. Laboratory reports focus on clinical information pertinent to the patient's care and the interpretation of test results. Therefore, demographic information about the patient, the actual laboratory test results, and the date and time of testing are standard elements included to provide context and essential details regarding the patient's tests.

In contrast, including personal contact information of physicians is not standard practice and could raise concerns regarding privacy and confidentiality. Keeping the focus on critical medical data ensures that laboratory reports serve their intended function: to inform healthcare providers about test results and facilitate appropriate care without extraneous personal information.
