I have read this Informed Consent carefully, and all my questions were answered to my satisfaction.  I hereby consent to participate in the Services, including the performance of the Test(s) that I have ordered and the Consult, pursuant to the terms, conditions, standards, and requirements set forth herein, in the PWNHealth Terms of Use and PWNHealth Notice of Privacy Practices or as otherwise provided to me.

HIV Testing Consent (only applies when ordering an HIV test)

By purchasing a blood test for the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) to detect HIV via antibody, antigen or viral DNA, you agree to the following:

I have been informed that the tests can produce false positive and false negative results. Also, I have been informed that when results warrant, additional reflexive testing shall be performed at no additional cost as outlined in the test descriptions on Request A Test's website. Reflexive testing reduces but does not eliminate the possibility of a false positive HIV result.

I have been informed of the estimated detection periods for each test as described on Request A Test's website. I understand that testing at a time earlier than the estimated detection period may reduce the accuracy of my test results. I have been informed that all detection periods are an estimate based on currently available information and neither Request A Test nor the performing laboratory can make any guarantees as to the accuracy of test results. It is the recommendation of Request A Test that all test results be confirmed by a licensed doctor or medical professional before any diagnosis, either positive or negative, is made.

I acknowledge that I have given my consent for the performance of an HIV blood test, and the release of the results as described in my order information.
