[MCOH-EH] Urine Drug Testing Panels

[Nancy Rodway]

Ten panel as well because the "opiate" test in the five panel covers only the natural opiates (heroin, morphine and codeine) so you miss the semisynthetic opioids which are commonly abused

We do 10 panel on all employees. We do not different panels for different types of employees.

We send all non negative screens out and positive tests are reviewed and managed by the MRO with the status reported out to me.

Greetings:

We are a medical center/hospital with over 4500 employees.  We presently do pre-employment drug screening for all employees with a Rapid 5 Panel Urine Drug Test that is then sent out if anything comes back positive.  We are wondering what other organizations use for pre-employment urine drug testing?  Specifically does anyone use 10 panel screens, healthcare worker specific screens, and do you do different screens for healthcare employees (nursing, providers) versus other types of employees (ie housekeeping, nutrition services, etc.).

Any input would be appreciated.
