You must have a signed physician's order before the lab work is drawn. This is a State and Federal regulatory requirement. Lab FAQs? How do I get a copy of my lab results? The best way is to get a copy from your family/ordering physician. By requesting it from the ordering physician, if you have any questions, you can ask the physician at that time. You may obtain a copy of your lab results from our Health Information Management department. They will have you sign a release form and get you a copy of your results. How long do lab tests take to get to my physician? There are many tests that we do "in house" (lipid panels, urinalysis, complete blood count....to name a few), that are drawn, analyzed and back to the physician's office in a matter of a couple of hours. There are also tests that we send out to our reference lab, Weland Clinical Laboratories, that we cannot perform at our facility. These tests are generally back to us within 24 hours (Monday through Friday). What is the cost of my lab test? The price of your lab test(s) is available from the lab. Just ask and we can let you know! More questions about your lab test? Go to http://www.labtestsonline.org.
