  1. All cases, except those exclusively for toxicology, will be assessed an accession fee of $10.00. An accession is defined as specimen(s) of one animal species or miscellaneous substances belonging to one owner and submitted at one time.
  2. Non-Washington samples will be assessed a ~50% surcharge except where indicated.
  3. Clinical pathology services (e.g., hematology and cytology) are provided by the Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences (VCS) – (509-335-0745). These services are billed by WSU Veterinary Teaching Hospital.
  4. Poultry and food safety testing is performed primarily by the WADDL Avian Health and Food Safety Laboratory. Samples can be sent directly to:
                Avian Health and Food Safety Laboratory
                2607 W Pioneer
                Puyallup, WA 98371-4919
    Phone: 253-445-4537 - FAX 253-445-4544
  5. A fax, mail or electronic report is provided at no charge.
  6. Samples sent for analysis to outside labs are billed for any additional direct costs incurred. Handling fee (includes postage) is $20.00 plus $2.00 per tube (Serology).
  7. Fees are subject to change without notice.
  8. "STAT" fee - Please contact lab in advance to arrange scheduling and fees.
