I would only add, that any presumtive positive test should be confirmed with GC/MS confirmation. I have worked in a clinic where a rapid urine test was the ONLY thing that was used and based on this test, the clinic reported out the test as being positive. I would never sign off on such tests however, since they were not confirmed by GC/MS.
