Receiving results

Results are delivered through LabNexus, a secure portal connected directly to the laboratory’s LIMS. A practice orders and receives results in the same place, and a result appears as soon as it is reported rather than after a separate publishing step.

Access is set up for a practice during onboarding. Practices that prefer another delivery route are configured to it.

Sign in to LabNexus — a separate secure system, for practices already set up. This website holds no patient information.

What a report carries

Clinicore reports a measured concentration, not a threshold call. That distinction is the substance of the toxicology and endocrine reports both:

  • A number for every detection, against the cutoff or reportable range that applies to that analyte
  • Parent drug and confirmatory metabolite reported together, so a prescribed medication is confirmed by the marker it actually produces rather than inferred
  • A scope note where one applies — where the reportable range does not cover the full clinical question, the report and the test page both say so

Toxicology reports additionally sort results into consistent with the reported prescription, reported but not detected, and detected without a prescription.

Sample report

Sample TM² therapeutic medication monitoring report. Synthetic patient and provider data throughout, marked SAMPLE. Two medications are reported as prescribed — oxycodone and alprazolam — and both are detected with their confirmatory metabolites, each showing a measured concentration in nanograms per millilitre against its cutoff. No inconsistent results are present.
A TM² blood report. Synthetic patient and provider data throughout — this is an illustration of the report format, not a patient result.

Results are released to the ordering provider

Clinicore does not release or discuss results directly with patients. The ordering provider holds the report and is the right person to interpret it.

A patient contacting the laboratory about a result will be directed back to the provider who ordered the test. That is stated plainly on the contact page rather than left for someone to discover.

Turnaround

24 to 48 hours from the time the specimen arrives at the laboratory, across all service lines. See turnaround.
