Laboratory
Laboratory Services
At Schiffert Health Center, we have an onsite Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendment (CLIA) approved high complexity laboratory that is available to all registered students. Commonly ordered tests, such as complete blood count and urinalysis, are performed in the health center lab. A reference lab (or outside lab) is used for less commonly ordered tests.
Schiffert Health Center medical technologists are certified by the American Society of Clinical Pathologists. A board certified Pathologist serves as the Medical Director for laboratory operations.
Fees
The student health fee does include the costs of some basic laboratory services. There are separate fees for special labs ordered by your clinician. The fee depends on the lab study ordered by your clinician. Students are responsible for all charges.
Schiffert Health Center does not file claims to insurance companies.
