Laboratory Services

Your test results will be shared with you in a follow-up appointment, by telephone, or a secure message via the Wellness Portal.

All other laboratory specimens are sent out to a commercial lab. You have the option to self-pay or have the lab fee billed to your insurance company.

If your medical provider outside the Student Health Center orders a lab test, you can arrange to have samples (blood, urine, etc.) collected at the Student Health Center and sent to an outside lab. In order to do so you must:

1. Obtain a written request from the medical provider specifying the test name(s) and the relevant diagnosis code(s).
2. Bring the request to the Student Health Center or have the provider fax it to us at 585-475-7788.
3. Make an appointment to review the requested test(s) with a Student Health Center clinician and have the sample collected.
4. Sign a Release of Information Form to allow the Student Health Center to forward the results to the ordering clinician.

The Student Health Center clinician will notify the student and the clinician of the test results when they are available.
