These partnerships give HireRight direct access to the laboratories and their nationwide patient service centers (PSCs) for blood testing services, including titers for Hepatitis B, Varicella, MMR, and blood testing for Tuberculosis exposure. Partnering with these leading laboratories makes available a new network of close to 4,000 additional in-network clinics for candidates and clients.
“We are always looking for ways to better serve our valued customers, many of whom rely on our drug and health screening services to help keep their workplaces safe,” said Dr. Todd Simo, Chief Medical Officer at HireRight. “With this direct lab integration, HireRight can manage the testing process more effectively and consistently, something that has really been a challenge for our industry for these types of services.”

Analysis of early orders has found that HireRight’s new solution – the first of its kind for a major screening provider – has reduced blood testing turnaround times by up to three days. Additionally, by going direct to a lab and using their patient service centers, HireRight can offer these services at lower rates than providers who use third-party sites.
HireRight’s solution combines the licensed physician provider network with the laboratory collecting and testing the sample to create both the blood test order and the physician approval instantly and simultaneously, further streamlining the process. After selecting a clinic, candidates and employees will receive an automated requisition they can take with them to the clinic, eliminating the need to visit a third-party clinic to obtain a physician’s referral.
