Annual Physical Bloodwork/Lab Draws: Once the initial (pre-hire or new patient) lab draw is completed at the Health & Wellness Center, contracting agencies may continue to utilize the Health & Wellness Center for all annual physical lab work, or they may have lab work done at a lab location through the contracted lab vendor with the Phoenix Fire Department Health & Wellness Center. No internal blood draws within your department will be permitted, unless facilitated with Phoenix Fire Health & Wellness Center staff. All participating agencies shall work with the PFD Health & Wellness Center staff to coordinate the bloodwork required for your department, confirm contracted lab vendor and locations, and ensure the correct lab slips are provided to the lab at the time of the blood draws. The Phoenix Fire Department's contract agreement with our laboratory services vendor does not include “on site” phlebotomy services for wellness fairs or events held at individual fire departments. Services rendered for “on site” phlebotomy will need to be arranged with the lab separately and all “on site” phlebotomy service charges will be the responsibility of the fire department requesting these services. Cancellations, No Shows, and Unused Reserved Appointments: Life is busy, and we understand that unforeseen circumstances can take place preventing members from making their scheduled appointments. We would appreciate a minimum 24-hour notice for cancellations. We will work with your department's liaison, or with the individual, to reschedule an appointment due to unavoidable circumstances. However, a no show with no call to notify our department, or reserved appointment slots that are unused, may result in a charge to your department. We want to be respectful of your time and would ask for the same courtesy in return. HWC-IGAServicesMenu Exhibit A-R2022.doc Page 5 of 5 Last updated: Feb-2022:clk
