Frequently asked questions about test results

Unless otherwise noted, the answers to the following questions apply to test results by healthcare professionals only.

COVID-19 RESULTS: Test results are typically available by the end of the next day. As testing conditions continue to evolve, stay up-to-date on estimated turnaround times.

If you're looking for your results from tests you've purchased directly from Quest, go here for more information. If your testing was ordered by your healthcare professional, your lab test results (performed by a Quest Diagnostics laboratory) will be delivered to MyQuest as soon as they are available. You can go to the Results page and look at the Pending Results section to determine the current status of your lab work. If it has been more than 5 days since you came in for testing, you can go to the Results page and click Request Test Results (or the plus [+] icon > Request Test Results on your mobile device) and then follow the instructions for requesting lab test results. 

After requesting your lab test results, a new item appears on your Activity and Results pages. The item on your Activity page indicates you requested a test result and the item on your Results page provides information about the status of that request.

Note: If you are waiting for lab results in CA, PA, OR, or MD, your lab results may be held for a period of time before they are released. This hold time is in place to comply with state-specific laws. 

You can check the current status of your test results in MyQuest on the Results page under Pending Results. Test tracking cards appear on the Results page under Pending Results, and indicate where the test is in the process. Testing can be in one of the following states:

  • Test Ordered. Quest has received an order for your testing. After your sample has been collected, it will be sent to a Quest laboratory for processing.
  • In Process. Quest has received your sample. Once testing is complete, your results will be ready for review.
  • Physician Notification. Processing has been completed and your test results are being prepared. You'll receive an email when your test results are available for review in MyQuest. (In some cases a delivery date may be provided.)
  • Canceled. This order was canceled on <date>. Please determine if testing is still needed.

Note: If no status is available, you should see the following message At this time, we are unable to provide the status of pending lab results. As soon as we have status information it will be updated here. Please check back later.
