How to Read a Labcorp Test Result
LabCorp is an independent clinical testing facility that provides doctors and patients access to laboratory tests without being connected to a hospital. While the majority of LabCorp's test results are sent directly to your healthcare provider, the LabCorp website does allow patients access to Pap test results, if the healthcare provider has elected to participate in this program. Only normal results are reported through this portal. Any other results are only reported to the healthcare provider, and it is up to them to notify the patient of the results. Test results are usually available on the LabCorp website approximately 10 business days after your doctor's appointment.Things You'll Need
