Lab tests on questhealth.com are overseen by an independent physician and these physician order each lab test. Included with your purchase, you have the option to discuss your lab test results with an independent physician, who may be able to prescribe treatment.

Quest works with PWNHealth LLC and its affiliated professional entities (collectively, PWN) to provide independent physician services associated with your lab test purchase. PWN services include physician oversight of all tests, including the ordering of tests and the evaluation of results once available. If one or more of your results indicates that you need prompt attention, you will receive a call directly from the PWN care coordination team. Additionally, if one or more of your results is for a positive sexually transmitted disease (STD) or HIV result, you will receive a call directly from the PWN care coordination team. All of test results will be sent directly to your Quest account. You will have the opportunity to speak with a PWN physician to discuss the lab results, and in some states, the Licensed PWN physician may be able to provide treatment. Before submitting payment for your purchase, you will see the fees collected on behalf of PWN for their services to you.

If you would like to speak with a member of the PWN care coordination team or a PWN physician to discuss your results, you can contact PWN Monday to Friday 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM EST at 1.855.205.6146.
