Urine tests detect recent drug use (last 3 to 5 days) and are performed by LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics (chosen by the employer at startup). All paperwork is digital and the employee or applicant brings their script or registration number and a valid government photo to the testing center. BCGSmartCheck can schedule the appointment for the specimen collection or the applicant can go as a walk in. Test results are reported within 1 business day (if negative) and could take 2 to 3 business days (if positive).
The range of drug use being tested is a key determinant.
