when you compare the pass rates for Urine vs the Patch the urine pass rate is significantly higher I would imagine due the easily cheatable test
the patch rate on the other hand is much lower cause they can not bypass the results and I think other states are getting very wise in the patch preference this way you know the person did not cheat their way back on the streets and I bet people who used the patch have the lowest recidivism rate of all
stats from SD 24/7 General Drug Patch Statistics Summary Prepared by the Attorney Generals Office & Pharmchem Pass Rate 71.97%
General U/A Statistics Summary Prepared by the Attorney Generals Office Pass Rate: 92.9%
so I don't know if SD is any longer a valid barometer for the Use of the PATCH cause PCHM has been very successful in growing revenues y/y and now we found Louden County[link] blockbuster single order despite SD 24/7 run rate staying stagnant
