Terms and Conditions Agreement
Effective Date: [June 1, 2024]
Welcome to LABDX4U.com! These terms and conditions ("Agreement") govern your use of our direct-to-consumer laboratory testing services ("Services"). By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree with any part of this Agreement, you may not use our Services.
1. Services Provided
1.1 Description: LABDX4U offers direct-to-consumer laboratory testing services, allowing individuals to order and receive certain medical tests directly from us. These tests are all listed on our website.
1.2 Accuracy: While we strive to provide accurate and reliable results, please note that no testing method is infallible. Results may vary based on various factors including sample collection, handling, shipping, and individual health conditions.
1.3 Lab Testing: LABDX4U utilizes well-known, reputable National lab companies to draw and process specimens. While they strive to process specimens in a timely manner sometimes delays occur due to logistics, staff errors, limited reagents, mechanical, lost specimens, and other unforeseen issues. These issues may delay when lab results are released, if at all. If the labs are not processed or released, individuals will not be charged for them and have the option to return to lab location to be drawn again or be refunded.
1.4 Lab Processing: LABDX4U can’t guarantee when lab results will be available or released. Most of the common labs take 24-48 hrs to be available but other labs may take upwards of 2-4 weeks (lab processing facilities in California, Cleveland, Texas, Virginia). When you take into consideration lab test ordered, logistics, shipping, and run/processing setup times then delays may occur. LABDX4U can’t expedite lab processing or results. LABDX4U can check on the labs ordered to possibly determine when they may be available or released.
1.5 Provider Appointments: While we try to get lab results to individuals in a timely manner do not schedule physician or provider appointments with the belief, they will be available on a certain day or time. Individuals should either book appointments far enough out that is reasonable to receive results or wait until lab results are received.
1.6 Medical Oversight: LABDX4U uses independent physicians/providers to provide medical oversight of test results. Any critical/priority test results will be evaluated and addressed accordingly, by a staff member or a provider, that will warrant an alert call/text/email. The staff or provider will try connecting with the individual at least three times. The staff or provider will need to speak to the individual or the parent/guardian of a minor to review the results, offer education and explain the next steps that should be taken. Abnormal results do not warrant an alert call and should be sent to your provider.
Medical oversight providers do not offer medical advice, insight, diagnose, or interpret lab results. They are strictly used to review lab results and to alert individuals of critical/priority labs.
2. Privacy and Data Security
2.1 Confidentiality: We are committed to protecting your privacy. All personal and medical information collected during the testing process will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable laws.
