Results and Retesting Questions

How long does it take to get results?

What happens if my result is inconclusive, invalid, rejected, or insufficient?

A recollection or retest may be required. This may happen because of specimen volume, specimen integrity concerns, donor-related factors, shipping issues, laboratory processing limitations, or other issues identified by the laboratory or testing partner.

Do I have to pay again for recollection or retesting?

Additional fees may apply for recollection, retesting, laboratory processing, mobile service, shipping, administrative processing, or third-party partner fees.

Does retesting guarantee a different result?

No. Recollection or retesting does not guarantee a different result.

Can CCDS change or correct my test result?

No. Results are issued by the laboratory, testing platform, medical review officer, or authorized testing partner. Result disputes must be directed to the appropriate testing party.
