Practiclear support
What Practiclear is designed to support
Practiclear is designed to support screening-lab documentation, Labcorp requisition routing when appropriate, and clinician-signed documentation for common Virginia nursing and allied-health requirements.
- QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus
- MMR Immunity Profile
- Varicella IgG
- Hepatitis B Surface Antibody
- Core Panel combining those common screening labs
Practiclear does not provide primary care, urgent care, emergency care, vaccine administration, occupational medicine, program eligibility determinations, or a promise that any institution will accept documentation.
When ordering is available, Practiclear's current lab workflow is designed around Virginia nurse practitioner review, Labcorp requisition routing when appropriate, Labcorp draws, and signed documentation letters when supported. These are factual workflow references, not an affiliation, endorsement, partnership, or co-branding claim.

Checklist FAQs
Questions students ask before clinical paperwork deadlines.
These answers are general educational information. Always follow your program's official requirements.
Is this medical advice?
No. This checklist is general educational information to help students organize common school and clinical-site requirements. Follow your program's official instructions and your own clinician's advice.
Does this guarantee my school will accept my documentation?
No. Your school, employer, clinical site, or compliance platform makes the final decision. Practiclear can help with eligible screening lab documentation, but institutional requirements vary.
What is a titer?
A titer is a blood test that helps show immune status for certain diseases. Nursing and allied-health programs commonly ask for MMR, varicella, or hepatitis B antibody documentation.
What happens if my titer is non-immune?
It usually means the lab did not detect enough antibody to classify you as immune. Follow up with your school, pharmacy, student health, health department, or personal clinician about vaccination or repeat documentation steps.
Does Practiclear administer vaccines?
No. Practiclear does not administer vaccines. Students who need vaccines should use an appropriate pharmacy, student health service, health department, or personal clinician.
What TB test do nursing schools usually require?
Requirements vary. Some programs accept QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus, while others require TST/PPD or two-step testing. Students should follow their program's official checklist.
