How Do Families Arrange Home-Based Ultrasound Services for Seniors?
Arranging in-home ultrasound exams for seniors is straightforward—especially with dedicated mobile providers like All Seniors Foundation. Here’s a step-by-step guide for families seeking convenient and safe ultrasound diagnostics at home:
1. Obtain a Physician’s Order
- Most insurance plans, including Medicare, require a doctor’s order or prescription for an ultrasound. Consult your primary care physician or specialist, who can determine the medical need and specify the type of exam required.
2. Contact All Seniors Foundation
- Reach out directly to All Seniors Foundation by phone or online via their Ultrasound Services page. Provide the necessary information: patient’s name, location, requested test, and referring doctor’s details.
3. Schedule the Appointment
- After verifying the order, All Seniors Foundation’s team will coordinate a convenient date and time for the visit—often within a few days of your request.
4. Prepare for the Visit
- Staff will advise on any special preparations, such as fasting, drinking water, or medication adjustments, based on the type of ultrasound needed.
5. On the Day of the Exam
- A licensed sonographer arrives at the senior’s home with portable equipment. Family or caregivers are welcome to be present for support and assistance.
6. After the Exam
- Images are securely transmitted to a board-certified radiologist for interpretation. Results are sent to the referring doctor—usually within 24–48 hours.
