-
Q: Are the results confidential?
A: Yes. We respect your privacy and maintain confidentiality. You are the only one who receives the test results.
-
Q: Will I be able to understand the results?
A: Yes. All test results include the normal reference ranges, and abnormalities are indicated. We recommend you see your healthcare provider to discuss results outside the normal ranges.
-
Q: Will my doctor receive a copy of the results?
A: No, you will receive the only copy. Since we deal directly with you, no one else will receive copies from our facility. We recommend you take the results with you when you visit your healthcare provider. We will not keep a copy of your results.
-
Q: What if I received an abnormal result?
A: Laboratory test results may vary depending on age, sex, time of day sample is taken, diet, medications, and the limits of modern technology. A single test or group of results cannot guarantee good health, just as an abnormal result does not necessarily indicate disease. We strongly recommend you discuss the results with your healthcare provider.

-
Q: Do you accept insurance for the Value Labs?
A: No, laboratory testing performed under the Value Lab program is not covered by commercial insurance.
