It is extremely important that SBMF samples are placed in SBMF secure transport bags and separated from any other lab's specimens. Please place our yellow Histology label on the outside of each secure specimen transport bag containing pathology or non-gyn samples. The orange Blood Bank Services label should be placed on the outside of each secure specimen bag containing Blood Bank samples. Bags should be filled out as normal with client name, date and temperature. Please do not cover up the barcode with the label. If you don't already have an everyday pick-up scheduled with SBMF, please call us at 800-950-7263 to request a courier to pick-up your sample.

If you are in need of these SBMF labels or would like to request a laminated copy of the SBMF Test listing, please contact your Account Executive Laura Balciunas, [email protected] or Meghan Berkheiser, [email protected]. You may also order the labels using the SBMF supply order form. All SBMF requisitions are available on our website at www.sbmf.org.
