Most people will have normal test results but there is always a small chance that some of these test reports may come back abnormal. If abnormal, we will need to order more tests, and it will cost you more in time and money, AND we need to report abnormal test reports to health dept as required by state laws. 

4.  I 693 vaccine requirements:  Varies by age.  Please bring in your vaccine records if any.  If you do not have  any vaccine records, we can help you to check online vaccine records if any, or we can provide a list of vaccines you need to meet minimum requirement for this examination. 

If you do not have proof for required vaccines, then these vaccines can be obtained from local pharmacy. Your health insurance (if any) may cover the cost of these vaccines at your pharmacy  You or your doctor may choose blood tests to determine if you need these vaccine(s) or not. (blood tests are offered for some vaccine(s) only). Doing blood tests will take extra time and it will incur more cost. If your blood test reports come back with insufficient antibody level, then you will need to get these vaccines with additional costs. OTHER OPTION is to get vaccine(s) as advised without checking for antibodies and this may speed up completion of your I 693 exam.
