I authorize Global Diagnostic Labs, LLC (“Global”) to collect a saliva sample from me and conduct RT-PCR COVID-19 testing of the collected sample. I understand that RT-PCR COVID-19 and Antigen testing services by Global are in accordance with the Federal COVID-19 Pandemic Emergency Declaration.

1. I acknowledge and understand that there are risks and benefits associated with undergoing a RT-PCR COVID-19 test, and there is the potential for false positive or false negative test results. The RT-PCR COVID 19 test being administered does not provide a medical diagnosis of COVID-19 or any other disease. The test result provides information for my healthcare provider to assist in determining whether I should receive further testing or medical treatment. Further, I understand that the RT-PCR COVID-19 tests administered by Global have not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), but have been authorized under an emergency use authorization granted by the FDA. I assume complete and full responsibility to take appropriate action with regards to my test results. Should I have any questions or concerns regarding my results, I shall promptly seek advice and treatment from a medical provider.
2. I understand that I have a right to confidential treatment of my test sample and test results. I understand that I will receive the test results from Global. I authorize representatives of Global to review my test results and to disclose such test results to county, state, or any other governmental entity as may be required by law.
3. I understand that Global will have access to my sample(s) and that my sample(s) will be used only for the purposes for which I have given my consent or as allowed under applicable law. I understand samples will be discarded within 48 hours of testing. If a specimen is used for research and development, the specimens are not individually identifiable, i.e., the subject's identity is not known and can not be ascertained by the research team or any other individuals associated with the research.
4. I understand and acknowledge that Global and its affiliates, representatives and agents are administering RT- PCR COVID-19 testing services only and are not providing any medical or other healthcare services. I authorize Global to communicate with other medical providers regarding my treatment and care as it relates to RT-PCR COVID-19 testing services. I may seek such healthcare services beyond those addressed in this consent from a healthcare provider of my own choosing.
5. I authorize Global to bill my insurance provider for the RT-PCR COVID-19 testing services performed by Global. I understand that I am financially responsible for the services rendered by Global.
6. I authorize Global to use the information contained herein to contact me for matters related to healthcare treatment, including eligibility for free testing kits provided by the federal government.

I hereby affirm that I have read and understand this document, had the opportunity to ask questions and consult with a medical provider of my choosing, had the opportunity to seek additional medical opinions, and received satisfactory answers to all of my questions.

I understand and accept all risks contained in this document and give my informed consent voluntarily to receive a RT-PCR COVID-19 Test from Global. If applicable, I authorize Global to bill my health insurance provider for the services rendered consistent with this consent.
