Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions from healthcare providers about NuWav testing services.
What lab panels does NuWav offer for primary care in Plano?
NuWav offers a full primary care menu including CBC with differential, comprehensive and basic metabolic panels (CMP/BMP), lipid panel, hemoglobin A1c, hepatic function panel, TSH, urinalysis, and PSA. Express courier service from our nearby Carrollton lab with multiple same-day pickup windows for Plano clinics, so Plano providers receive same-day to 48-hour turnaround depending on the panel.
Does NuWav integrate with our EMR system?
Yes. NuWav supports HL7 result delivery to Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Cerner, and most major EMR platforms. Setup typically takes 5–10 business days and eliminates manual result entry for your staff.
How does a Plano clinic open a NuWav lab account?
Call 972-327-8857 or contact our sales team to start a courier and supply account. Most Plano clinics are fully onboarded — including supply delivery, requisition setup, and EMR result routing — within 5–10 business days.
What turnaround should we expect for routine chemistry and CBC?
Routine chemistry panels (CMP, BMP, lipid, A1c) and CBCs are typically resulted within 24 hours of specimen receipt at our Carrollton lab. Same-day results are available for specimens received before our morning processing cutoff.
Does NuWav offer contract billing for high-volume clinics?
Yes. Clinics ordering 100+ tests per month can opt for direct contract billing — predictable per-test pricing billed monthly to the practice — instead of per-patient insurance billing. This is especially popular with concierge medicine, occupational health, and DPC practices.
Can NuWav handle send-outs and esoteric testing?
Yes. For specialty assays outside our in-house menu, NuWav coordinates send-out testing through partner reference labs while keeping requisition, billing, and result delivery under a single account — your clinic submits one order and gets one result report.
Are NuWav's lab results accepted by hospitals and specialists in Plano?
Yes. NuWav results are issued under CLIA #45D2306629 and are accepted by hospitals, specialists, and health plans nationwide. Results include full reference ranges, critical-value flags, and the laboratory director attestation required for clinical decision-making.
