Does a replacement kit cost anything?

A replacement collection kit is free when a new sample collection is needed because your original sample could not be analyzed. Use this article to understand when a replacement is free and what to do if you think you need one.

When a replacement kit is free

If your sample could not be analyzed and you need to collect again, there is no charge for the replacement kit. This includes situations such as:

  • Your sample was rejected at the laboratory (for example, insufficient sample volume, collection issue, or the sample exceeded its stability window)

  • Your sample was lost or damaged in transit before reaching the laboratory

Important: When we send a replacement kit, it reuses your original order. You do not need to place a new order or pay again.

When a charge might apply

Other circumstances may involve a charge depending on the situation. If that's the case, our support team will explain the details before anything moves forward and help you choose the best option.
