"DRE with guiac is now a send to lab  test." 

Bill,

How long do they take to get you the results?  And how long do they keep your finger?   ;-)

Guiac  developer, hah. You're lucky. Our compliance team told us that because 
the ED  is not an accredited lab that we're not allowed to do any tests -- 
including  guiac, UA or urine preg in the ED. DRE with guiac is now a send to 
lab  test.


 
that needs to be appealed under the 'waivered test' protocols.
 
especially a test that contains integral positive and negative  controls.
