Oneofmany1986 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Do most schools consider Tele tech and/or EKG techs as HCE or PCE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padreaming Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I was a cardiovascular tech which consisted of ekgs, holter monitor application, phlebotomy, and Coumadin pro-times. As long as you are physicially interacting with the patient it should count as PCE. Tele tech is debatable since you are monitoring the pt's rhythm via computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oneofmany1986 Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Thanks for the input. I’m also an EMT, and Air Force medic with 13 years of experience I’m just trying to see what I should list it as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastudentw Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 If you physically interacted and laid your hands on a patient, then it is PCE. I was also an EKG tech. Every school I applied to accepted it as PCE. You just have to make sure you accurately describe your role in the CASPA section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
