All AIDS, Serology and
Center for Disease Control (CDC) submission forms are available from the
Receiving Department (602) 542-1190.
AIDS
One form must accompany
each specimen that is submitted. Due to the confidentiality and anonymity of
AIDS testing at the State Lab, DO NOT write the patient’s name on the
submission form. The red ID number (upper left corner of form) is the
reference number the submitting agency will need when calling into the lab.
Make sure that the agency code and address of the submitting agency is
included or a delay in sending out a copy of the results will occur. Verify
that the red ID number on the specimen correctly matches the HIV submission
form; otherwise the specimen will be rejected.
Serology
One form must accompany
each specimen submitted. Please fill in the top portion of the form for
patient information. The more information provided, the better we can
perform the requested tests. Fill in the submitting agency information
(agency code, address, phone number and a doctor or contact person) to avoid a
delay in receiving the results.
CDC
A Serology submission form
for any specimen that needs to be forwarded to the CDC or is sent by special
arrangement for testing should be filled out as completely as possible. The
CDC requests additional information (date of specimen collection, date of
onset, treatment with drugs, symptoms, travel, immunization, etc.) for their
testing, so please supply the information needed to avoid a delay of results. |
