Tests and Fees
Turnaround times for reporting of results may be affected by large sample numbers, availability of reagents or cell lines, confirmatory testing, legal holidays or inclement weather. Consequently, turnaround times listed for tests are estimates. There is a $10 accession fee for every submission, unless noted otherwise in the Test Details. If you have an urgent test request, WVDL will do the best we can to accommodate expedited testing. In this situation, an additional cost of $30 per sample will applied. It is imperative that clients call the lab (608-262-5432) immediately to request expedited testing.
NOTE: These are the costs charged to the client. Additional costs may be incurred, with notification.
Submissions for tests NOT listed here will be referred to a WVDL approved laboratory. The fee for a referral test is $25 plus the fees charged by the testing laboratory.
