Test OrdersHow do I add, cancel, or change a test requisition?Additional tests on the same sample may be requested on specimens at Athena within six months of specimen receipt, provided that adequate quantities of the specimen are available. However, a new Test Requisition Form must accompany each additional request. A physician may cancel a test at any time before specimen testing is completed. We regret that a cancellation request received after the test result has been reported cannot be honored. Once results have been reported, the appropriate party will be billed.
