VDL News

• The VDL can now report Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) test results electronically using Veterinary Services Process Streamlining (VSPS).

The veterinarian will have to create an eAuthentication-Level 2 account for submitting samples through this system. Once this account is created, a VSPS profile will be created with role of accredited veterinarians. Details about creating eAuth account and accredited veterinarian profile are given here and also available online at https://vsps.aphis.usda.gov/vsps/. After eAuth account is opened, the veterinarians will complete Form 513. Once this profile is created, the veterinarian will be able to submit samples through this system.

Click here for a presentation showing VSPS training for accredited veterinarians and here for instructions on how to create an online Coggins form.

IMPORTANT: While submitting samples for testing at the VDL, a printed unofficial copy of Coggins form (VS10-11) should be sent with the submission stating “for electronic processing”.
