I authorize notification of results of the test will be sent to the email and phone number that was provided. I authorize the disclosure of my test results and any follow up test results to the county and state public health departments or to any government entity as required by law and the ordering provider. I understand, as with any medical test, there is a potential of false positives and false negatives. Hence, I will discuss all results with my personal physician. I understand that issues due to sample collection or sample degradation, samples could get rejected or test results could show up as invalid or inconclusive. A retest may be required by the lab.

I understand that I am not entering into a doctor-patient relationship with AcuDart Health, Inc. or any of its physician partners and that any questions or required follow up shall be my responsibility to arrange with my own physician.
