On-Call Testing
IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD
Need After-Hours Testing?
Enroll in our 24-7 Membership.
Paramex is not open for walk-in testing 24/7. Our office closes at its regularly scheduled times. After-hours testing is available through company membership or prescheduled personal and court-ordered appointments. Members must contact our staff to arrange service before arriving; membership does not allow you to walk in for testing at any time.
​
COMPANY TESTING
Paramex offers a 24/7 membership for companies that need access to after-hours testing. We encourage companies to enroll during regular business hours, before a need arises, to avoid higher nonmember costs and help ensure after-hours availability. Companies requesting service without an existing membership must pay an additional nonmember fee along with the first year’s membership fee.
​
PERSONAL & COURT
Personal and court-ordered testing does not require membership, but must be scheduled before 12:00 p.m. (noon) on the day after-hours testing is needed. Weekend testing must be scheduled by 12:00 p.m. (noon) on Friday.
​
PROFESSIONALS / Monitored Testing Programs
Individuals participating in testing programs through professional licensing boards - such as pharmacy, dentistry, or nursing-or similar monitoring programs must contact Paramex promptly upon selection when testing is needed outside regular business hours.
-
Weekday after-hours testing: Call our office by 10:00 a.m. on the day you are selected to arrange testing for that evening.
-
Saturday and Sunday testing: Notify Paramex between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. on the day you are selected. Our staff will coordinate a designated appointment time for that day.
Please check your selection status early enough to meet these notification deadlines. Weekend appointments are coordinated within a shared testing window to minimize separate staff trips to the office. After-hours service is by confirmed appointment; staff are not available for arrivals at any time. Requests received after the notification deadline may not be accommodated.

Non-members and personal testing - BE PREPARED TO MAKE PAYMENT
FOR COURT ORDER TESTING: Paramex operates within standard business hours which can be found on your notice and in our contact information page on our website. Because the court offers only 12 and 24-hour notices for drug testing, Paramex allows the use of our 24-7 availability for those being tested. This service has an additional charge that must be paid by the one who requests its use. COSTS: 75.00 for appointments made before 12:00 PM on the day of testing. $150.00 for appointments made after 12:00 PM on the day of testing.
