Test Code Search Results

The Test Code Search Results window shows all the test codes that match your search criteria.

If the correct test appears, select the check box next to the test code and click Use Selected. The test code is added to the order.
If you get the message "No Records Found" or if the code you want to use does not appear on the list but you are sure it is in the system, try expanding your search criteria by using wild cards. For instance, if you are searching for one or more thyroid tests type *THY* in the Description field and press the Enter key or click Search.
Directory of Services information is available on any test code that appears in blue and underlined. If there is no link for a test contact the lab for test information.
