A member asked:
Went to the obgyn, did a pap test and she ordered blood testing but one of the pages it had vaginitis panel.do a separate lab, conduct that procedure?

Some basics: The order forms for any provider are designed locally. What they call a "panel"& what it includes is up to the providers that use it. It is a shorthand that speeds the ordering process. Depending on the size of the practice & its on site facilities, some or all of the testing may be done in house or sent out to an off site testing facility.
