LOS ANGELES—Talent Health Labs (THL), a new performer-founded testing network, has signed with FSC PASS to provide the PASS testing panel nationwide, with no additional shipping or draw fees. Through its relationship with a respected national lab network, Talent Health Labs is now able to offer PASS testing at nearly 2,000 draw centers in the United States, including twenty locations in metro Las Vegas, thirty in Los Angeles, and fifty in South Florida.
The lab went online in PASS on Sunday, December 1, in honor of World AIDS Day. Residents of Nevada, Florida and California can begin using testing centers nationwide immediately. Talent Health Labs plans to introduce access to residents of all states within six weeks as they finalize nationwide compliance.
“At a time when production is rapidly expanding beyond the traditional industry hubs, Talent Health Labs dramatically increases the options for performer testing,” said Free Speech Coalition Executive Director Michelle L. LeBlanc. “This is an incredible win for the performer community and for FSC PASS.”
Talent Health Labs was co-founded by veteran performer Kiki D’Aire, with the goal of making testing more convenient for performers across the country, whether they work in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley or Jackson, Mississippi. Performers e-sign forms and pay for their test online, then bring their lab order to one of the nearly 2,000 locations listed on their site for the draw, with no appointment needed. In most cases, performer results are available in PASS by the next business day.
“As a performer, I understand the need for better access to testing,” says D’Aire. “By moving registration and payment online, and partnering with a national testing network, we've been able to make high-quality testing available throughout the United States, while keeping the cost to performers competitive.”
Talent Health Labs’ performer panel costs $165 with no additional shipping or draw fees. THL also plans to offer varied wellness packages, telemedical advice and e-prescription services, and will add even more labs to their network.
Talent Health Labs is an affiliate of Lab Test Live Inc., a new venture from Alert Cloud. Founded over a decade ago, Alert Cloud’s software solutions for healthcare are used by clinical labs nationwide.
