Given the environment, we don't recommend that patients go to in-person labs to get their blood drawn. Mobile phlebotomy is still an option in certain states and areas, and we'll check in with these mobile phlebotomy companies before sending any information to your patients.
In areas that are in "shelter in place" mode, such as the Bay Area, mobile phlebotomy is also not an option until the government regulations are lifted. For the time being, we'll still be sending your patients their options for both mobile phlebotomy and in-person, but letting them know about the regulations, and advising them to hold off or schedule ahead to April 7th or later.
Yes! We are fully operational and are drop shipping to your patients from all labs. If you're looking to move your clinic virtual, check out our guide here.
