Hi @rosemarya 😊
I hope all is well! I have a curiosity question. If your PCP in Kentucky rewrites the lab work order, then the results are sent to your PCP instead of Mayo. Is that right? Does your PCP forward the results each month to Mayo for you or do you fax or portal the results each month to Mayo?

Yes, that is correct, @hello1234. My PCP has to authorize m the Mayo (out of state) lab order. It is a simple process and I just drop the lab order with his nurse who calls me usually later that day or next day to pick it up. I take it to my local hospital/Clinic lab where it is placed on file as a standing order for whenever I need routine (or extra) labs drawn.

My lab results are faxed to my PCP as the ordering physician, and to the Mayo Transplant specified address. I don't have a Quest lab or a LabCor near me, so the hospital lab is my only option.
Does your PCP get a copy of your routine labs?
