The results of more than 35,000 COVID-19 tests ordered by a
Florida-based health care system and performed by a third-party lab are
unreliable, the company said Saturday.
According to AdventHealth, a faith-based health care system, the
situation has created “unacceptable delays.” AdventHealth didn’t name
the third-party lab but said it had terminated its contract with the
lab.
The tests were a mixture of positive and negative results, and some
had been at the lab for a while. About 25,000 of the unreliable tests
were in the central Florida area.
AdventHealth president and CEO Terry Shaw said the company will notify patients who are impacted.
AdventHealth has 49 hospitals in nine states. Company spokeswoman
Melanie Lawhorn said two of those states are joint venture systems and
were not affected by the unreliable testing.
