Q Why is Direct Access Testing being offered? A People are taking more responsibility for the maintenance of their own health. Nova provides a simple and convenient way for interested consumers to obtain laboratory testing.
Q Do I need a doctor's visit? A No. This is a simple, convenient, and confidential way of getting laboratory test results without an appointment or visit to a doctor's office.
Q How much does it cost? A Fees are listed in our Direct Access Testing brochure, at our office, or by linking below to our TEST MENU page.
Q Will my insurance pay for this testing? A No. Because these tests are not ordered by a physician, Insurances routinely do not cover these tests. You may pay by cash, check, or credit card.
Q Where do I go? A You can have your blood sample taken at Nova, 1775 E. Loop 336, Suite 3 in Conroe, Texas.
Q How will I receive my results? A You can have your results mailed to you or you can pick them up at our office. Results are kept totally confidential.
Q When will I receive results? A Most results are available in two to five days
Q Will the lab interpret results for me? A No. Reference (normal) ranges are provided to help interpret your results.
However, normal results do not ensure health and abnormal results may not indicate disease.
If you have a test result that is not within the reference range, or if you are not feeling well, Nova recommends that you see a doctor.
Q Who do I call with other questions about the program? A You may call Nova Client Services at (936) 756-5333.
