Again, it would be too cost-prohibitive to run the GC/MS as the primary analysis.
You'd have to remember (or at least, you'll learn in time after racking up some years in the corporate rat-race) that ALL businesses (that even includes the Health Care field) have a bottom line to look after. No employer in their right mind of business would imperil that bottom line by testing the urine of every Tom, Dick, or Harry on the payroll, using the GC/MS right out of the chute. They would not last as a business - especially if they have a large payroll.
Burnt Toast Reviewed by Burnt Toast on . Can anyone tell me what "0 10GCMS Drug Abuse Panel 10(GC/MS)" exactly is? From what I understood most of them listed the threshold at the front, like 10-20 meaning a ten drug panel at the 20ng level. Does the 0 mean that it's at a 0ng threshold? The test I took didn't include an immunoassay at all and went straight to the GCMS as far as I can tell. Rating: 5
