Policies

Informed Consent Statement

I understand that phlebotomy is the collection of a blood sample by needle stick or finger stick for laboratory testing. Common risks may include temporary pain, bruising, bleeding, lightheadedness, hematoma, and, rarely, infection or nerve irritation. I understand I may refuse or stop the procedure at any time. Test results will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy and confidentiality requirements.

Mobile Draw Policy

By requesting a mobile draw, I agree to the following:

  • I or a responsible adult will be present at the designated location at the scheduled appointment time. A $25 trip fee may apply for missed or cancelled appointments with less than 24 hours notice.
  • I will provide a safe, clean, and adequately lit environment for the phlebotomist.
  • BHMPS reserves the right to reschedule or decline service if the environment is deemed unsafe.
  • All specimens will be transported to the designated laboratory in accordance with proper chain-of-custody protocols.
  • Results will be released to the ordering provider. BHMPS does not interpret or release laboratory results to patients.

Physician Order Policy

A valid physician order is required for all laboratory specimen collections. I confirm that:

  • A written or electronic laboratory order from a licensed, authorized healthcare provider will be presented at or prior to the time of collection.
  • Orders must include the patient's full name, date of birth, tests requested, and the ordering provider's name and credentials.

Consumer-Friendly Testing Consent

If I am requesting consumer-friendly (direct-to-consumer) laboratory testing, I understand and agree to the following:

  • No doctor's order is required for consumer-friendly testing. Tests are self-ordered and results will be released directly to me.
  • Blessed Hands Mobile Phlebotomy Services, LLC (BHMPS) provides specimen collection services only and does not diagnose, treat, or provide medical advice. BHMPS is not responsible for test results.
  • Testing is performed by a certified laboratory.

  • A mobile fee may apply in addition to laboratory fees. All fees will be disclosed prior to scheduling.
  • I agree to seek medical advice, care, and treatment from my healthcare provider regarding any questions, concerns, test results, symptoms, or medical conditions. If I become ill or experience symptoms, I will contact my healthcare provider or seek appropriate medical attention.
