  • The Crozer Health Laboratories comply with all federal and state regulations regarding the release of protected patient information. Laboratory results will only be released to the ordering physician or other physicians/healthcare providers who have a treatment relationship with the patient.

    Laboratory staff will always ask for two forms of identification when results are to be released verbally. In addition, Laboratory staff members will ask you to confirm your treatment relationship with the patient if the requesting party is not the ordering physician.

    Release of information outside of the above parameters may require a signed authorization from the patient.
