Important Note

Tests included are: Albumin, BUN, Calcium, Creatinine, Electrolytes, and Phosphorus.

While a microtainer is an optional tube type in rare circumstances, it is not recommended.

When ordering a custom panel, Medicare requires the clinician confirm each test in the panel is medically necessary for the patient’s treatment. By regulation, annually we will send a physician acknowledgement letter to ordering clinicians requesting a signature attesting to medical necessity review.
