Our Privacy Statement and, with respect to protected health information, our Notice of Privacy Practices describe how Labcorp collects information about you through the Online Services, and how we use, disclose, and protect that information.

The clinical information contained within the "Health Care Provider" section of www.labcorp.com is intended for the use of health care professionals. Health care providers should exercise their own clinical judgment when using our content, tools, or databases.
If you are a patient or health care consumer, you should not use information found on the Online Services to replace a relationship with your physician or other health care professional and should not rely on that information as professional medical advice. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health care provider concerning questions you have regarding a medical condition, and before starting, stopping, or modifying any treatment or medication. In the case of a health emergency, seek immediate assistance from emergency personnel. Never delay obtaining medical advice or disregard medical advice because of something you have or have not read on the Online Services.
The information (including, without limitation, advice and recommendations) and services on the Online Services are intended solely as a general educational aid and are neither medical nor health care advice for any individual problem nor a substitute for medical or other professional advice and services from a qualified health care provider familiar with your medical history.
