Order Management
The laboratory will perform tests only at the written or electronic request of an authorized institution. Verbal or faxed requests for additional laboratory tests are permitted by the referring institution only. Verbal requests will be followed up with a faxed authorization form to be completed by the referring insitution and faxed back to CPAL. CPAL can not accept orders directly from patients or physicians. A referring laboratory may request CPAL to do reflexive testing based on current or previous laboratory results. Requests for auto-reflexive testing should be submitted to the Laboratory Information System Coordinator, Technical Director or Administrative Director.
