WHo To Test
We cater to a broad patient demographic requiring urine testing. This includes patients new to your practice who are already taking controlled substances, those requesting the prescription of a controlled substance or specific drugs, individuals frequently seeking refills, as well as patients exhibiting aberrant behavior or reporting frequent loss of medications. Our services facilitate optimal patient care and safer prescription practices.
Why To Test
We strives to promote positive health outcomes through comprehensive urine testing. Our testing aids in fostering positive health behaviors post-discharge or during treatment, reducing clinical variance in rehabilitation, and serving as a standard of care in opioid prescriptions. Further, it assists in lowering hospital visits and re-hospitalization rates, preventing toxicity/overdose, and identifying cases of diversion, abuse, and addiction.
When To Test
Governing agencies suggest utilizing drug testing services in a variety of situations. These include instances when a patient is newly prescribed a controlled substance, when there’s a considerable change in a patient’s treatment plan, in the presence of noticeable aberrant, drug-related behavior, or upon receiving third-party reports indicating drug-related behavior. We’re committed to fostering responsible prescribing and upholding the highest patient care standards.
