    Minor caveat: you also need to provide copies of both sides of your insurance card(s).
    ExosomeDx: the instructions in the kit should be revised to indicate that patients need to include these copies with the Patient Information form.

      The shipping address is on the label. At the time of writing this reply, it goes to a CLIA certified laboratory in Waltham, MA. When the sample arrives, the laboratory test is run and the results reported back to the ordering physician. The lab test involves extracting exosomes from the urine sample, then amplifying the genetic material in the exosomes to determine the levels of gene expression for genes shown to relate to prostate cancer. If the expression level is low, the score is low.

      We utilize first catch urine in order to get Exosomes (microvesicles) directly from the prostate.

      @@Phillip-y6d Hello, At the time I'm writing this, the test is covered by Medicare. Beyond this, covered will depend on your health insurance. Different health insurance companies offer differing coverage.
