“Comprehensive BioScreen” Preparation Guide

IMPORTANT: This is a FASTING blood draw and urinalysis! 

Your Comprehensive Bio-Screen can be performed at any LabCorp location of your choice. For a simple and effective experience, follow the instructions below.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

• Lab Requisition Form. Located in the documents section of your patient portal (Better). Encouraged but not required.
• Photo ID.
• Lab Appointment. Testing performed at the LabCorp location of your choice. Appointment required.

PREPARE TO FAST

• Fast for 12 hours. You must not eat or drink anything (except water) for 12 hours prior to your appointment.
• Water is allowed and encouraged! Dehydration can skew certain test results. Consume half your body weight in ounces of water in the 24 hours leading up to the appointment (180 lbs = 90 ounces of water).
• Do not fast longer than 14 hours. Example: if your blood draw is at 10am on Wednesday, have your last meal between 8pm and 10am on Tuesday.

HAVE YOUR LABS TAKEN

• Schedule your lab appointment. Call the LabCorp location of your choice or schedule online. Due to fasting requirements, aim for a morning appointment.
• Present to the lab. Bring your photo ID.
• Have a full bladder. Be prepared to give a urine sample in addition to the blood draw.

Please contact Dr. Zitt or Melissa (patient concierge) through chat in your patient portal if you have any questions regarding the lab procedures.
