Hair Follicle Test
Hair Follicle Tests follows the same testing procedures as lab-based urine drug testing, except a small specimen of hair, incls uding the hair follicle (root), is collected and sent to the lab for processing. Some of the benefits of hair follicle testing include a longer historical window of detection for substances of abuse and the ability to complete a drug screen when the donor may have challenges in producing a urine sample (example: shy bladder.) Results are available, on average, in 24 to 48 hours. Lab-confirmed positive results can then be forwarded to AccuSource’s Medical Review Officer (MRO) for review. ePassport and electronic scheduling are available for client convenience.
