Labcorp Patient 2FA Setup with an Authenticator App
Labcorp Patient supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Labcorp Patient account.
A Labcorp Patient account holds sensitive health information that's well worth protecting with 2FA. Besides an authenticator app, Labcorp Patient also offers SMS text codes and a proprietary app. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

How to recover your Labcorp Patient account
If you lose access to your authenticator and Labcorp Patient gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Labcorp Patient doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Labcorp Patient's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
