About Us
Platinum Toxicology (Platinum) along with our laboratory partners, are a leading provider of urine drug screen (UDS) testing for clients across the United States. The labs we use are widely recognized for their conservative testing and billing protocols along with flexibility in meeting the particular needs of its clients. Platinum works closely with physician practices to provide implementation and ongoing support of UDS programs for the monitoring of patients’ pain medication use.
Summary testing results, along with comprehensive lab reports, and a medical record review, are prepared for clients and are accessible via a HIPAA and Hi-Tech compliant web-based system. Platinum will also work with clients to integrate these reports directly into an existing EMR System. Offering a complete package to a medical practice, Platinum has a full spectrum of services including: medication dispensing, compound medications, and pharmacogenomics.
Our lab is a fully accredited CLIA laboratory and COLA certified.
Their methods and testing procedures are based on scientific facts and values produced by the laboratory in which extensive research and data analysis is collected and measured. Their testing procedures are what set us apart from any competitor. We are proud of our procedures and efforts to assist our clients. Our lab prides itself in providing more to our clients than our competitors. For clients within our geographic range we are able to collect specimens the same day and perform the test the very same night. This testing window gives us the cutting edge in providing test reports quicker than our competitors – within 24 hours. For out-of-area clients, samples are shipped overnight and tested that very same day.
Our lab uses one of the most advanced laboratory information management systems (LIMS) to generate test result reports with higher accuracy and a customized, easy-to-read report for each physician. We can interface our LIMS to most clinic EMRs. This gives your clinic quicker access to your reports and helps you run more efficiently, reducing clinic operating costs.
Most laboratories charge self-pay patients higher amounts for the testing and constantly contact the patients until they make payment in full. Our lab charges self-pay patients a reasonable fee and works with patients and their individual/financial situation.
Our laboratory partner is committed to helping healthcare professionals provide the best care to their patients. Every day they strive to continue exemplary work and to be the best in the industry.
