All specimens submitted to the laboratories must have accurate, complete and legible patient identification on the specimen container, whether primary or aliquot. Identification of the specimen must include both the patient's full legal name and identification number.

For safety purposes rather than glass, whenever available PLASTIC SPECIMEN CONTAINERS are to be used. All specimens must be submitted in a rigid, puncture resistant, sealed container.

Securely sealed biohazard specimen transport bags are used for this purpose. Requisition forms are to be placed in the outer pocket.
