TLC Drug Test Appointment Guide in NYC

The TLC drug test and the TLC medical exam are not the same step. This guide keeps the Labcorp and TLC-approved drug-test workflow accurate while still showing where Nao Medical fits into the separate medical-exam visit.

The official TLC drug-testing page says appointments can be scheduled by calling 1(800) 923-2624, results take about three business days, and the drug-test fee is $34. New applicants, interim-year drivers, and renewal-year drivers all have different timing rules around that same official workflow.

Drug-test separation This page exists because TLC searchers often type medical exam, drug test, appointment, and locations into the same query. The drug test is TLC-approved Labcorp. The medical exam is a separate clinic visit.

What matters most for this TLC step

New-driver drug test basics

Official TLC guidance says new applicants complete the drug test after submitting the TLC application and bring the TLC receipt, DMV license, and drug-test fee.

Interim and renewal-year timing

Licensed TLC drivers must take and pass the drug test within the official 90-day timing window before the interim anniversary or renewal expiration date.

Results and follow-up

The official TLC drug-testing page says TLC receives Labcorp results in about three business days.

Separate TLC medical exam

Nao Medical handles the TLC medical-certification visit separately, so open the TLC medical pages if you still need the form-completion step.
