|---|---|---|---|
| THEV | Hemoglobinopathy Interpretation | No | Yes |
| A2F | Hemoglobin A2 and F | Yes | Yes |
| HBEL | Hemoglobin Electrophoresis, B | No | Yes |
| FERR | Ferritin, S | Yes | Yes |
Reflex Tests
Lists test(s) that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial test(s)
| Test ID | Reporting Name | Available Separately | Always Performed |

Testing Algorithm
Delineates situation(s) when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
This is a consultative evaluation in which the case will be evaluated at Mayo Medical Laboratories, the appropriate tests performed at an additional charge, and the results interpreted. For information on thalassemias and appropriate test ordering, see Thalassemia Tests in Special Instructions.
