On-site Testing Q & A

What is on-site testing?

When you visit your health care provider, they may order lab work, X-rays, or other tests to investigate medical concerns or monitor your condition. Many clinics refer you to another office to complete these tests. This setup requires you to travel to another facility for testing after making a trip to see your provider.

 

Tru-Health Urgent Care removes the middleman and bridges the clinic with an on-site testing facility to offer a full range of services under one roof for patient convenience.

What are the benefits of on-site testing?

On-site testing offers many benefits for patients, including:

Convenience

On-site testing allows you to get the testing services you need without leaving your provider’s office for fast, convenient care.

Lower costs

Traveling to another site for testing can be expensive. Between gas and parking, off-site testing has hidden fees you may not feel prepared to pay. Tru-Health Urgent Care eliminates any hidden costs by offering in-house testing services.

Faster results

Coordinating care is simpler when all the services you need are under one roof. Your provider can read your results right away to provide prompt care.

What does on-site testing include?

Tru-Health Urgent Care offers a wide range of on-site testing, including:

 

  • COVID
  • Flu
  • Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
  • Glucose 
  • Complete blood count (CBC)
  • Occult blood
  • Rapid mono
  • Pregnancy testing
  • Drug and alcohol screening

 

The clinic also provides comprehensive Department of Transportation (DOT) physicals. This head-to-toe screening assesses your fitness to drive a commercial vehicle if you work for the DOT.

What can I expect from on-site testing?

With an in-house lab, the team may send you to complete your lab work immediately after your visit, eliminating any wait time between appointments. Tru-Health Urgent Care also has on-site X-rays, which they may perform during your visit. 

 

Depending on the types of testing you need, the team may read your results immediately after your visit or follow up with you in a few days. Once you receive your results, the team may schedule another visit or order additional testing to investigate your condition further.
