▼ How can I keep my “true” identity from HTD, and the clinic, and the lab?
Easy: Don’t give us your phone number or credit card info. Then mail us a money order (a money order does not require your name or signature) for the total amount due for the blood draw and lab analysis. We will e-mail the lab paperwork to you when the money order arrives and email the lab results to you the same day we receive those 2-3 days later. If you want, you can even set up a temporary (and free) “alias” e-mail address at Yahoo! (e.g.,“YourAliasName”@yahoo.com) for the purpose of our email communications with you.
By the way, you do have to sign a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Notice (required by Federal law, and for your own protection) before we can actually arrange your test(s). Don’t worry, though… print out a copy at home. Sign it with the same ‘alias’ that you will use with us over the phone, and mail it to us along with your money order.
There are two more things we hope that you will feel more comfortable knowing: First, 99.99% of the blood draw centers we send you to will NOT ask for your photo I.D. when you go in for your blood test. And, in the very-very rare event that one should they do so, don’t feel obligated to show it to them. Instead, leave the clinic and immediately call us at
1-800-456-4647 ext. 206. We will find you another clinic! Or, keep in mind, that your lab tests results are NEVER sent to or shared with the clinic or its personnel that does your blood draw. Only YOU get your lab results, and NOBODY else. So, if you are asked, and you DO decide to show them your drivers license or other ID, rest assured that they will NEVER see or know the result of your test(s) anyway!
