The BiophysicalCheck Process
Private. Convenient. Comprehensive.
1. Your private and personalized BiophysicalCheck assessment can be ordered online, by mail, by phone (800 532 7095) or through one of our partners. In most states, a doctor's order is not required.*
2. Read the Informed Consent Form, which summarizes the BiophysicalCheck assessment procedure and ensures that you understand its benefits and limitations. You will sign this form when your blood is drawn.
3. You will be contacted to schedule an appointment to have your blood drawn (approximately 2 tablespoons) at a convenient blood draw station.
4. Your blood then undergoes extensive laboratory analysis.
5. A Biophysical medical team reviews your results and notes those results that are out of reference ranges.
6. A report of your results is sent to you electronically in a password protected PDF format.** The entire process usually takes about 15 business days from the time we receive your blood sample.
Regardless of the findings, we strongly recommend that you discuss the results of the BiophysicalCheck with your personal physician. Your physician can help put the results in perspective for any further evaluation, tracking or treatment. Our physicians will thoroughly discuss any aspects of the assessment with you and, with permission, your personal physician.
It is important to note that physicians associated with Biophysical will not make a diagnosis based on the results. The results are not intended to be used as a sole means for clinical diagnosis or patient management decisions.
* Two tablespoons of blood is equal to approximately 30 cc or 29.58 ml. Five tubes of blood are collected for the Biophysical250 assessment for a total of 33.5 ml, which is approximately 2.27 tablespoons.
** Your physician may have to order your BiophysicalCheck assessment and/or receive your BiophysicalCheck results. Some states permit consumers to order laboratory tests, but require that laboratory test results be sent to licensed physicians. Other states require that licensed physicians order laboratory tests and that the laboratory test results go to a licensed physician. Our customer service representatives will be able to tell you if your state requires your physician to order your BiophysicalCheck, receive your BiophysicalCheck results or both. If your physician is required to receive your BiophysicalCheck results, your results can be sent to electronically to the physician that you designate. You are also encouraged to print your BiophysicalCheck results and take to your physician for review.
Disclaimer: BiophysicalCheck results do not constitute a medical opinion or advice. These results are not medical care, treatment, a treatment recommendation or a diagnosis. Communication with medical professionals employed by Biophysical Corporation about the BiophysicalCheck or its results does not establish a physician-patient relationship.
