Sending Specimens to the Kentucky State Lab
Before labs are sent to the Kentucky state lab, providers in Northern Kentucky should contact the NKY Health Epidemiology team. This will allow proper notification to the state lab team and ensure expedited processing of specimens.

Specimens should be packed appropriately utilizing cold packs when required. NKY Health may be able to assist with shipping specimens to the Kentucky state lab. All specimens should include KY lab form 275.
