Providing answers to patient questions
Positively impacting the lives of our patients
Empowering patients to take a more active role in their healthcare decisions
Choose to Know is an education and prevention program created by DLO specifically for Oklahomans. DLO provides both patients
and healthcare providers with information on diagnostic test recommendations from leading disease prevention organizations such
as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and American Heart Association
(AHA). Rather than focus on a specific specialty such as women’s health, Choose to Know will concentrate on the importance of
patient and provider education, promoting healthy lifestyles and having a proactive approach to healthcare. Patient messaging
demographically targets specific Oklahomans to educate them on health conditions, suggested testing guidelines, and laboratory
tests available. The provider material, designed to complement the patient messaging, consists of information such as Oklahoma-
specific statistical health data, guidelines on certain disease states, demographical targeting, and DLO’s available diagnostic tests.

Education and Services
DLO offers comprehensive patient services to simplify patient management and communication. But only DLO goes above and
beyond by providing a range of education and wellness services for patients:

Invest in answers for better health

•   Simply present your credit card or health savings card during your visit. We accept all 4 major credit cards, debit cards, and
    health savings cards.

DLO Direct, launched in July 2016, is a new program that gives patients the ability to order select lab tests without orders from a
health care provider.
•   DLO Direct offers a variety of confidential tests, including general wellness, drug screening , infectious disease, and many more.
•   Cost of testing through DLO Direct can be less expensive than insurance co-pays and/or coinsurance.
•   Payment is due at time of testing.

•    Patient’s can share test results, delivered through myquest.com, with health care provider for interpretation and consultation
Personal health management is most effective when it involves a partnership with a health care provider. DLO encourages patients
to share test results with a personal health care provider. Only a health care provider can interpret laboratory testing results and
provide an accurate picture of a patient’s health status.
