Our research indicates that several states can utilize rapid testing products for initial screening of donors for drugs of abuse. Most of the states that allow  this instant test mandate that in the event of a positive initial result, the donor be sent to the clinic for standard laboratory (confirmation) testing. This gives employers the documentation they need in the event of an adverse employment decision and the donor seeks legal action.
Mobile Medical Solutions is proud to utilize two distinct rapid tests for initial substance abuse screening:
|
1.
|
The IScreen Rapid Saliva Screen tests between 4-6 substances (THC, OPI, PCP, AMP, M-AMP, COC) simultaneously, without the need for restroom facilities. This easy administered state-of-the-art test can be conducted in an office setting, and takes approximately 10 minutes to obtain initial results. |
|
2.
|
The ICup Rapid Urine Test tests between 3-10 substances (6+barbiturate class drugs) in a self-contained test cup. Employers utilizing this product are trained to simulate clinical restroom conditions, by turning off all accessible water and bluing out toilets. Each cup comes with a temperature strip to ensure accuracy. This test only takes 5 minutes to obtain initial results. |
The ICup and IScreen products will rule out 85% of the negative tests, and employers are able to make quick employment decisions in these cases. The other 15% of Donors are sent to the clinic for confirmation.
Employers save an average of $1,000 for every 100 tests performed, and most importantly get the majority of results "on the spot."
