Clinician Information

The information in this section has been provided to assist clinicians with everything they may need to know when dealing with our laboratory, or our collection centres.

The range of Tests We Offer is extensive.  Whilst most of our tests do not require patients to prepare, some of our fasting / cultured / observation tests do require preparation.  For this reason we provide a range of Patient Test Instructions that you can refer your patients to prior to their test(s).

All of our tests are community funded in the greater Auckland region.  Whilst most Auckland region residents are eligible for free testing, some are not.  To assist you with confirming the eligibility of the patients you refer, we provide Test Funding Eligibility information.  We additionally provide Test Pricing should you wish to refer a patient who is not eligible for community funded tests.

Interested in how we take test specimens and get them to our laboratory?  We offer information about Our Laboratory and also the Journey of a Test. 

To further assist you, we have Links for Clinicians:  a list of helpful websites that provide supplementary information around lab testing and common healthcare conditions.  You can also read more about Labtests in our Labtests Brochure (PDF, 2Mb).  We also have Forms & Manuals for you, in electronic format.

Labtests is here for you.  For further advice and information, please call 0508 Labtests (0508 522 837), or Contact Us.
