Do I need to see my health care provider to get tested?

Direct access testing allows greater participation in one's own health care. Your health care

provider can refer you to one of the participating lab facilities, but it’s not a requirement.

However, you will be asked to provide the specific name of the test you wish to order. This

service is not allowed to make any test recommendations. Participating lab facilities are CLIA-

certified and regulated by appropriate governmental agencies.
