Laboratory Services

UHS Laboratory Services offers preventive and diagnostic testing, including STI testing, urinalysis, pregnancy tests, strep tests, antibody titers, and more.  

UHS laboratory services are for patients seen at UHS and must be ordered by a UHS provider.

An appointment may be needed for a provider to order the lab request, but no appointment is necessary to have lab work collected.

Need to know

Appointments

An appointment may be needed for a provider to order the lab test, but no appointment is necessary to have lab work collected. 

Results

Results are reported in the student’s electronic medical record and sent to the student via MyUHS.

Fees

Most lab tests ordered by a UHS provider are fully covered by the student health fee. If the lab tests are required as part of a third-party physical or study-related requirements (e.g., antibody titers), there will be a fee.

For lab testing ordered by providers outside of UHS, consult the list of UW Health Clinical Laboratory locations below that can collect and perform testing. Students will need to register at UW Hospital and Clinics before outside lab work is completed. Call 608-262-1400 to register.
