a <br />Opiates <br />Codeine - 2000 ng/ml <br />Morphine - 2000 ng/ml <br />O-Acetylmorphine - 10 ngiml <br />(Test for 6-AM when morphine concentration exceeds 2,000 ng/nl) <br />Phencyclidine - 25 ng/ml <br />Amphetamines <br />Amphetamine - 500 ng/ml <br />Methamphetamine - 500 ng/ml <br />(specimen must also contain amphetamine at <br />a concentration of 200 ngiml. or greater) <br />These cutoff levels are subject to change by the Department of Health <br />and Human Services as advances in technology or other <br />considerations warrant identification of these substances at other <br />concentrations. <br />Adulteration <br />Where appropriate, the laboratory will also analyze the specimen for <br />the presence of adulterants. ln the event the laboratory has reason to <br />believe a specimen has been adultered, the laboratory shall report the <br />result to the MRO. <br />Laboratory Reporting Of Test Results <br />Before the laboratory reports any test result, it will first review the <br />results of the initial test, confirmatory test or any relevant quality <br />control data to certify that the test result is accurate. The laboratory <br />will then report the test results to Visu-Sewer's medical review officer <br />("MRO") within five (5) working days after the receipt of the specimen <br />and will forward the MRO the original urine custody and control forms. <br />The laboratory will not report test results to any MRO with whom it <br />may be construed as a potential conflict of interest or from whom it <br />may derive any financial benefit by the employer's use of the same. <br />Any specimen which was negative on an initial or confirmatory test will <br />be reported as negative. The only specimens reported as positive will <br />be those which have been confirmed as positive through gas <br />chromatography/mass spectrometry. Test results will not be reported <br />verbally or by telephone and the laboratory will not report any test <br />results directly to Visu-Sewer, but only to its MRO. The laboratory and <br />Visu-Sewer will ensure that the data transmission is confidential and <br />will secure and limit access to its data transmission storage and <br />retrieval system. <br />a <br />33
