The Pathology Lab & Home Collection Department of a hospital is responsible for conducting diagnostic tests on patient samples to help diagnose and monitor various medical conditions. The department may offer a range of tests including blood tests, urine tests, biopsies, and other specialized tests as required.

In addition to in-hospital testing, the department may also offer home collection services where trained technicians visit patients' homes to collect samples. This can be particularly helpful for patients who have mobility issues or are too ill to visit the hospital.

The department is staffed by trained technicians, medical technologists, and pathologists who work together to analyze and interpret test results. Once a diagnosis is made, the information is relayed to the patient's treating physician for further treatment and management. The Pathology Lab & Home Collection Department plays a critical role in the diagnosis and treatment of many medical conditions and is an essential component of any modern hospital.
