Laboratory
Services
103-104 Laurel Hall
During the academic year, diagnostic laboratory
testing is provided in support of all outpatient clinics and specialty services.
Most of the lab work is performed at the SHS, to include urinalysis, complete
blood counts, mono testing, strep throat cultures, cholesterol testing, and glucose
testing. Laboratory tests must be ordered by Student Health practitioner.
For special studies sent to our reference lab, the patient's insurance carrier is billed for this service by the reference lab. Some HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) and PPG (Preferred Provider Group) based insurance plans exclude coverage for laboratory tests not authorized or taken in conjunction with that HMO/PPG. While every effort will be made by SHS staff to coordinate your level of coverage with the need for diagnostic laboratory services, you need to be aware of your insurance coverage requirements and limitations at the time of your visit.
