## Can I delay when a test result becomes visible for the patient?

Yes- some organisations may decide they want to delay when test results are visible on the patient record to allow themselves time to speak to the patient themselves. 

If a test result has been delayed, the time and date it will be available will be displayed for the patient.

For information on how to switch on delays, please see our [deploy wiki](https://wiki.patientsknowbest.com/space/DEPLOY/3543859201/Delaying+Display+of+Test+Results). If you still require further assistance, please contact the PKB Integrations team.

## Can I still see delayed results?

Yes, during the delay the patient cannot see the test result but professionals can.
