I would be interested to discover the policy that other labs have  when
patients arrive at the phlebotomy clinic without a request form?  In
particular, if the patient's doctor cannot be contacted is a request form
completed and blood taken based on historical requesting patterns and
discussion with the patient? If so is patient consent documented in these
circumstances?
