Chain-of-Custody Collection Process

Every court-admissible specimen collected at MCW Laboratory is handled under a documented chain-of-custody process that tracks the specimen from collection through laboratory analysis and final reporting. This unbroken documentation trail is what makes results legally defensible.

1

Identity Verification

Government-issued photo ID is required and recorded at check-in. Donor identity is confirmed and documented on the federal custody and control form.

2

Observed Collection

Specimen collection follows strict federal protocols. The collection area is secured and the process is documented to prevent tampering or substitution.

3

Specimen Sealing & Labeling

The specimen is sealed with tamper-evident tape in the donor's presence. Both the collector and donor sign the custody and control form to confirm the seal.

4

SAMHSA-Certified Lab Analysis

Specimens are shipped to a SAMHSA-certified laboratory for immunoassay screening and GC/MS confirmation on any non-negative result.

5

MRO Review

A licensed Medical Review Officer reviews all non-negative results, contacts the donor for legitimate medical explanations, and issues the final verified result.
