Common questions
What happens when a result comes back non-negative?
For applicable laboratory testing, a Medical Review Officer reviews the result and any legitimate medical explanation before a verified status is reported. Ask Noble which tests, laboratory, MRO, and communication path apply to your program; do not treat an initial screen as a final verified result.
How fast do we get results?
Timing depends on the method and whether laboratory confirmation or MRO verification is needed. Ask a coordinator about the expected turnaround for your program.
Can you manage drivers across multiple states?
The original program describes collections through a nationwide partner network, with results, random selections and DQ files consolidated in Noble Now. Confirm collection availability for your locations when scoping the program.
What is the difference between a consortium and a standalone pool?
A consortium combines multiple employers into one random pool; a standalone pool serves one employer. The program can include selections, notifications and documentation.
