Results From A Drug Test

Meps drug test results?

I havent smoked in a 26 days and I took my drug test 3 week ago at meps and I haven t received any notice of my results yet though. I was told I was supposed to be notified 3 days after going.. Am I good because I did swear in already??

How long dose it take to get back drug test results?

that seems excessive. they must have sent it out to some other state or something and there must have been a weekend involved somewhere. i've worked as a travel nurse and some places do it right on the spot. it's a very simple test that can be done within 10 min. some companies however send to outside labs for whatever reason and these take much longer because it involves couriers and your test may have not even gone out that day. either way you should have gotten an answer by now. try calling the employee health dept if you can reach them.

How long does it take to get back drug test results?

Well, I can pretty much guarantee the test has been completed. I work in a lab, and drug tests are usually done the day of the test or the day after if it was collected late, and it only takes a day. Then, if it's positive, it usually goes out to another lab for confirmation testing, but that usually only takes another day maybe two after the test has been mailed out. I don't know your exact situation obviously, but in most cases with a drug screen, if you haven't heard anything by now, then it was negative. Had it been positive for anything someone called an MRO, who is a doctor that reviews positive drug tests, would have called you and made you aware that you were positive for something and he would then ask if you had a doctor's prescription for the drug you tested positive for.
So, it's not 100%, but I would think in this case no news is good news.

How long for probation drug test results?

They can get an immediate (within 30 seconds-2 minutes) positive or negative for many different drugs (opiates, THC, methamphetamine, amphetamines, cocaine, alcohol, etc). They can also use strips to see if you've taken anything to alter your urine. If they believe you have used something, they can send your urine out for levels which will tell them how recently you used. They can also send your urine out to determine what exactly you used (like in the case of Opiates if you used Heroin or Oxycontin). These results will typically come back within 3-7 days.Your best bet, is to not use drugs! Your on probation, do what you need to do and be done with it.

How long will it take to get the results of my military drug test?

To all you haters out there, I told my First Sergeant about it and he said that all of you who think I'm going to get discharged are wrong. Enlisted soldiers can't get discharged without a court martial. He said I;ll lose 1 rank and thats it. Next time ill get court martialed. **** off to all you haters out there. Smoke and toke till the day I die, ask me if I did it, you bet im gonna lie.

Is a negative result good on a drug test?

Yes, 'negative' is the result you want on a drug test. 'Negative' means 'no.' The test found no THC in your specimen. That is good.

In most tests in the medical field, they are looking for something bad. 'Negative' means they didn't find it. In those cases, 'negative' is good!

Think positive and hope for negative on your tests!

Are drug test results protected by HIPAA?

I work for a software company that provides software to Methadone clinics so I know a wee bit about this.Most of the other answers address the HIPAA question. But you should know that Drug Test Results, are also covered by 42 CFR Part 2 regulations which are special privacy rules for patients with Substance Abuse problems.Here is the link to the regulations…Code of Federal RegulationsThe bottom line is that data cannot be shared without consent. In fact, the patient has to consent to exactly what and to exactly whom he wants to share the data. (This is called data segmentation for privacy…also known as DS4P). Google it.When you sign the consent to have your blood drawn, hair sample taken, or urine analyzed, you are effectively giving your consent to that clinic. But that clinic ABSOLUTELY CANNOT share that data with anyone else, including any other healthcare provider, without explicit permission. (And, of course, not even to law enforcement unless there is a warrant).There is one situation where this is not good. Many patients, without access to their medication assisted therapy, are at high risk for relapse and even death from withdrawal.And, of course, this is a non-issue as long as the patient can make it to their clinic. But what if they want to travel to another town to visit their Great Aunt. In that case they can setup to “Guest Dose” at another town but setup for that isn’t simple or easy.Even worse, what if all the local clinics are experiencing short term closure (such as what happened on 911 or Hurricane Sandy)? Situations like that create extreme medical crises for addicted persons.The industry is working to make complying with DS4P both reliable AND easy but we have a long way to go. To help with that, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration , has funded an open source software project called Consent2Share (bhits/consent2share) but the uptake has been limited.

When will I get drug test results from LabCorp?

I am no longer employed at LabCorp, but I wanted to make a couple of comments here. While Labcorp does allow you to sign in to get your medical test results, this may not be the case for your drug testing results. It may also depend upon the company ordering the tests. The reason for this is that the company that ordered the test(your employer or potential employer) is the owner of the test results. You medical test results are being paid by you or your insurance. There is a distinct difference here. If you ordered and paid for the test, then you should get the results according to the following schedule:negative: next daypositive: 1 to 5 days is typical (can be longer for extremely positive or difficult samples)The employer or their agent will receive the drug test result in this time frame. If it is positive, the employer’s agent will contact the donor to determine if there is a valid reason for a positive result. The human resources department receives the result based on the results and the agents ability to contact you and your pharmacy to confirm a valid prescription. This is why you usually know within a few days if you have a job and it can take more than a week if it is positive. If you dodge the employer agent’s phone calls, this takes longer and they will only try to contact you three times.

How long does it take for MEPS drug test results to come in?

I'm asking because I smoked on February 13th and I went to MEPS on March 7th.
I'm not a heavy smokey, I've maybe smoked 5 times in my life. The last time I smoked before February 13th was the beginning of November.
I'm 5'3, 114 pounds and have a fast metabolism. And all I ever drink is water.
I took two dollar store drug tests and passed both before going to MEPS
I'm just kind of nervous, when will I know if I passed or not? And I also didn't tell my recruiter I smoked.
I know I made a mistake by smoking but can't do anything about it now.
When would I know by? And do you think I passed?
Thanks.

How long does it take to get drug test results for employment?

Several factors influence the time it takes for the result of a drug test to come back such as the type of drug test performed and whether the result was negative or positive.Firstly, if the outcome of any drug test is negative, the employee is cleared and not tested again, and the results are returned to the employee usually within three working days.However, if the result of a drug test is positive, further tests are carried out to rule out any possibility of a false positive result, in which case it may take up to four or five days till the results are returned.
