Results, privacy and consultations

myLAB Box

Results
Results are posted to your secure online account, with an email notification. The FAQ estimates 2–8 days for processing and posting after the lab receives your samples (5–11 days from order to results, including kit delivery). The rapid HIV self-test gives a result at home in minutes.
Privacy
Kits ship in generic packaging with no product or company name. myLAB Box says testing is HIPAA-compliant and results are not shared with your health insurer. Positive results for reportable infections are reported to public health as required by law, even when the test is ordered online.
Physician consultation
Lab requests are authorized by affiliated physicians. Anyone who tests positive can request a free phone consultation to be evaluated for treatment of chlamydia, gonorrhea or trichomoniasis; a prescription can be sent to your pharmacy, depending on your state. The site does not state medication costs.
More about myLAB Box

LetsGetChecked

Results
Results are posted to your secure online account and app about 2–5 days after your sample arrives at the lab. Samples must be collected on a weekday morning and shipped the same day.
Privacy
Kits arrive in a plain envelope with no LetsGetChecked branding visible. The company says it shares information only where needed to provide its services or where it has a legal basis. Positive results for reportable infections are reported to public health as required by law, even when the test is ordered online.
Physician consultation
A clinician reviews results, and people with positive results get a call from the clinical team. Treatment (for chlamydia, and on the larger panels trichomoniasis and Mycoplasma) needs a paid virtual consultation, and medication costs extra. Not available in AK, DC, GA, IN, KS, MS, NM or WV. Gonorrhea is not treated; it needs an injection from a local provider.
