The Examinetics Advantage

Examinetics offers more than just drug and alcohol testing. Our services go far beyond just testing to give you additional benefits and peace of mind.

In-House MRO – Our dedicated Medical Review Officers are here for you. Other vendors may take up to 5 days to get your results because they share resources across labs. With our experienced in-house MRO’s, you get results in 24 hours.

Two Tier MRO – We understand drug test results are not limited to just a pass/fail status. Our Medical Review Officers will also work with you, the candidate/employee, and treating clinicians when a safety-sensitive concern is identified as a result of the confirmation test. As part of this process, we are actively involved in identifying alternative treatment options which gives the individual all the benefits of a treatment plan while not impacting their ability to perform the essential functions of their job.

Drug & Alcohol Policy Writing – Our team can write substance abuse policies that are customized to your specific job roles and company needs. We will not only help you meet legal requirements and regulatory standards, but also union collective bargained agreements and project site requirements to ensure all employees meet the requirements. This will also include the proper placement of employees into the corrective testing pools to ensure complete compliance.
