About Your Test Results



Your first set of results (along with any health information you choose to share) will be assembled into a single private record on the BioHub platform as a reference point going forward. This information BELONGS TO YOU and NO OUTSIDE PARTY can access it without your invitation and consent. It is not available to your employer, insurance company, or any government agency and NEVER becomes part of your permanent medical record UNLESS YOU PROVIDE IT.



When you have more than one value for a test, results are graphed together so you can easily track changes in your health over time. So the more tests the baseline includes, the more valuable it becomes in the future. Your results are reviewed by our medical team for any values needing immediate attention (critical) or requiring a follow up with your doctor (caution) before they are released to you. You will be notified by email or text when you can log back into your BioHub health record and review your results.



Once results are complete, you have the option to purchase time in group discussions (webinars) and one-on-one reviews (expert reviews) from a growing list of experts to: ask questions, identify risk factors and help create a plan to move forward. This unique way to privately share information is revolutionizing the way we learn about our health.



Looking at the exact same data from different perspectives (medical doctors, alternative medicine, nutrition, etc) allows everyone you invite to learn from each other. Expert add notes, recommend tests and follow up conversation (if needed), directly into one single record, it's the science of YOU.



You will also receive an invitation to become part of a private Facebook group (free of charge) to join an exclusive discussion with other record holders. (Access to this group is only available to those who have created their own BioHub health record.) The sooner you complete your tests, the sooner you'll be learning from the group that includes some of the best experts in the world. You will also have the opportunity to nominate your favorite providers to be part of this growing group of experts.

An Important Note About Your Experience



MYMEDLAB TESTS, SUPPORT GROUPS, OR EXPERT REVIEWS ARE NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR THE SERVICES OF A PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN. If you do not fully understand this important distinction about the services available here, please do not purchase our products. Our platform serves as a health concierge or guide that helps experts share their knowledge with the most people. These private conversations, based on the health information contained in your record, create a simple and convenient way to prepare for your next doctor's visit.



While they CANNOT provide a diagnosis or recommend ANY specific treatment from a single lab report, they may identify results that require a follow up with your personal physician. You will have the opportunity to invite your trusted health providers to participate in these private health conversation. We make it simple to securely fax individual results to your doctor from inside your record, if you choose to make results part of your permanent medical record with them.

This information is not sold, shared or used for ANY PURPOSE other than giving the expert the best information to help you. Once the conversation is complete, you have the option of un-checking any answer in your My History tab, which then deletes this information from your record.
