Your NIPT result will be sent to the ordering health-care provider typically within 7-10 business days. You should discuss how and when you will receive your results.

Prenatal Screening Ontario does not have access to your NIPT results. If your health-care provider does not receive the results within the expected time, they can follow up directly with the laboratory where the blood work was sent.

The results are reported as "high risk" or "low risk" for each of the screened conditions. In a small percentage of cases, NIPT will fail to give you a result.
