The Home Access® HIV test system is fast, convenient, accurate, and easy to use. Each test kit comes with a detailed instruction booklet with illustrations that take you through pre-test registration and counseling; collecting a blood sample;
shipping that sample to our accredited laboratory and calling back for test results, post-test counseling and referrals. Throughout the testing process, professionally trained counselors are available to provide assistance and to answer your questions. To protect your privacy, you are identified only by your eleven-digit Home Access code number (which comes with the kit). When you get your kit, you begin by calling a toll free number to register your anonymous Home Access code number and complete pre-test counseling, questions and demographic information. You can choose to speak to a Home Access counselor or use our automated registration and education system. Our counselors are available to help you with any questions or personal concerns. You collect the sample using the retractable safety lancet provided, pricking your fingertip and placing drops of blood on the blood specimen card included in the test kit. You only need enough blood to fill a circle the size of a dime. Shipping: Your blood sample is protected by an enclosed weather resistant protective pouch which is placed in a self-addressed, pre-paid FedEx® shipping envelope, included in the test kit. Your sample is shipped directly to our certified laboratory. Laboratory Analysis: The Home Access laboratory is FDA approved and CLIA certified (laboratory registration certificate CLIA #14D0981820). Our procedures and protocols have been certified by the US FDA under cGMPs (Current Good Manufacturing Practices). At the laboratory, your blood sample is tested in the same way as tests ordered by doctors' offices, hospitals and clinics. Your test results are available one business day after shipping.
