This is due to a worldwide shortage of blood collection tubes.

All current appointments are canceled.

Non-active duty beneficiaries must go to an off-base lab for collection and testing.

To get an appointment at an off-base lab, patients must call their Eglin provider to get a prescription to be seen at one of these facilities.
