Drug screening with first lab.

Does anyone know what the Arkansas BON tests for through first lab? Our fee just changed and a "new option" was added. I always get option 1 and today I got option 4. I am clean just curious.

Im in NC. but i go through first lab....My tests are 76$ regardless of option....i usually get option 1 or 2

Our fee is now a flat $100 a month paid to first lab regardless if how often we are tested or not tested.

I am charged per test...once monthly

That sounds good to me. I was tested 4x's in one month; 76.00 every test. I wish I had a flat rate.

the most ive been tested in one month was 2 times....four times would be crazy..

4 x's is a little over the top! What state are you in? We have not always had a flat rate. Was $63 per test. Then I got a letter in the mail saying they added a "new option" and I would be paying $100 each month. Then when I got tested "option 4" popped up. Must be the new option because I have never got it before.

I'd much rather have a flat rate than to pay per test. It'd be much more budget effective!

carrimarie1010 · Feb 19, 2013

Very true. I didn't think of it that way!

Did you ever find out what option 4 was? The same thing just happened to me.

carrimarie1010 · Feb 21, 2013

Nope, I have no idea. I don't know what state you're in but AR is very tight lipped about it. You can't even view your tests. The board doesn't allow us.

I'm in AR also. Weird that it happened to you too. I had just been tested 2 weeks ago. This was first time in 2 years having two drug tests in a month
