Confidentiality and Record Keeping

All employees of Tongass Substance Screening are required to sign a confidentiality agreement upon their employment with us. This agreement covers our entire operation, from testing procedures to record keeping. We take this policy very seriously. Our clients can depend on our discretion and professionalism at all times.

Tongass Substance Screening receives and maintains all records concerning drug testing for enrolled members. This includes information needed for maintenance of the drug program (employee lists, selected lists, copies of notices, and correspondence with employers). We retain negative results for one year and positive results for five years. All results are held in a secure area and are unavailable to unauthorized persons.

No confidential information my be released without the consent of the individual involved, with the exceptions provided for in 49 CFR Part 40. Blanket consent forms authorizing the release of any test result are not permitted. A donor requesting a copy of his or her results may do so in writing to his or her employer.
Regulated test results are sent via secure fax, US mail, or hand delivery.
