Comprehensive Cardiac Evaluation
Blood and Urine Collection Instructions
Our evaluations are a multi-step process. We will do our best to take you through the process as smoothly as possible.
You may have your blood and urine collected up to one month prior to your appointment. It needs to be completed before your appointment.
The University of Colorado Hospital will bill the Heart Disease Prevention Program directly. If you receive a bill for the blood and urine collection, do not pay the bill. Contact Tiffany Lipsey immediately at tiffany.lipsey@colostate.edu.
