How to read this index

How to read this index

The index runs in three groups. Primary sources are Oath's own materials — referenced by name only, no hyperlink, per this site's editorial rule against linking to the company under review. Third-party sources are independent vendor scorers, review aggregators, business directories, wire-service publications, and the Finnrick-pay-to-rate publications. Regulatory references are the CMS CLIA database and the USP <85> compendial standard.
