When results are in

You’re notified via email.

Results come into the Rupa Health portal, where you can then mark them as reviewed or schedule a clinical consult with the lab.

We don't send results directly to your patient unless you choose to automatically do so. Don't worry though, if you forget, results will still be made available in the Patient Portal automatically after 30 days.

Results for testing via Physician Services will be released to you and your patient at the same time.

Email

If your patient has questions along the way, we guide them to the right resources.

Patients can access our resource library or securely chat live with one of our patient support teammates!
