Medical Review Officer Services
Burlington Laboratories realizes that every patient is not just a patient, but an individual with a unique personal and medical history. And sometimes, when it comes to drug testing, the whole picture is not immediately clear.
For example, a client with co-occurring disorders may be legally taking many prescription medications. How those medications interact with one another and how they may affect a urine screen has potential to be confusing, even for medically trained personnel.
That’s why we partner with the best Medical Review Officers (MROs).
What is a Medical Review Officer (MRO)?
Medical Review Officers are independent, certified personnel who are qualified to compare an individual’s test results against the patient’s documented medical history. They are also medical doctors who are trained to be an impartial gatekeeper of information.
Why would I want to use a Medical Review Officer (MRO)?
The primary goal of a Medical Review Officer is to ensure integrity of the drug testing process. They achieve this by doing quality assurance review of the drug testing process and working to determine if there is a valid medical explanation for a laboratory confirmed positive. As true professionals, they advocate for efficient delivery of results and information and confidentiality in the entire process.
If you need additional help in assessing how a particular patient’s medical history might affect a positive lab result, you may benefit from the expertise of a Medical Review Officer.
