Lab

The Bethel lab is able to process most standard, routine labs including cultures, comprehensive chemistries, and blood counts. Viral loads and some specialized tests need to be sent to Lab Corp and are not quickly available.

In PowerChart/FirstNet you can order many lab panels in PowerPlans for specific diagnoses. If interested in individual components of lab panels, right click, and select Reference Information.

For Pap smears, YKHC uses Sure Path. We are doing high grade HPV testing per Pap guidelines (see the YK Clinical Guidelines). The appropriate testing is found in the Pap orders.

In the villages, Point of Care tests include, rapid strep, urine HCG, urine analysis, hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1C, glucose. Other basic labs can be drawn and sent to Bethel.

The Sub-regional Clinics have an onsite lab that runs many tests.

• The SRC labs may do CBC, BMP, CMP, HGB A1C, lipids, quantitative troponin, UA, urine micro, wet preps, RST/cultures, urine HCGs.
• For questions about the lab please contact at Aniak SRC Lab Director (907-675-4556).
