- New participants will be expected to go to their union hall to have their picture taken. The union halls will be taking and submitting pictures through the new IUCSAT web site (similar process as in the past).
- If the participant is unable to go to the union hall for the picture, they will need to contact MTS to make other arrangements.
- The union hall will provide the new participant with a Testing Consent and Authorization Form (blank forms will be supplied to all union halls) and a list of collection sites. If the hall does not have a blank form, they can call MTS and request that a form be faxed directly to the collection site.
- The new participant will go to the collection site and will be collected for their test. The participant will be given a copy of the chain of custody which can be used to show they have been collected for the test.
- The collection site will fax a copy of the chain of custody to MTS and the MRO.
- MTS can assign a card number as soon as a chain of custody is received. If the participant, union hall, or contractor needs to know the number, they can call MTS to obtain that number.
- MTS will mail the participant their IUCSAT card after their first verified negative test (for those new to the program).
