Claim 7:
8. A method for proctored examination for a drug test_provided within a drug test kit comprising a test reference element and a test kit container bearing a machine-readable code on an external surface thereof, the method comprising, in response to the machine-readable code being imaged by a camera of a user computing device:
providing a fiducial point from which a coordinate frame for an augmented reality presentation can be established using the camera and a display of the user computing device;
causing the user computing device to display a user-selectable graphic on the display of the user computing device that, when selected by a user, causes a software application stored on the user computing device to access a webpage that enables initiation of the augmented reality presentation that includes display of augmented reality content relating to the drug test kit;
causing a computing system to receive a user request from the user computing device of the user for the proctored examination for a drug;
causing the computing system to establish an electronic video conference session between a proctor device and the user computing device, wherein:
during the electronic video conference session, a proctor views, on the proctor device, a live video of the user taking the drug test,
the live video is captured using a camera of the user computing device of the user, and
the drug test results in a drug indicator indicating a result of the drug test that is viewable by the proctor in the live video;

causing the computing system to receive an indication that the drug indicator indicates that the user has tested positive for the drug based on the drug test, wherein the indication is provided by the proctor using the proctor device and based on the proctor viewing the live video; and
causing the computing system to verify that testing procedures associated with the drug test are completed properly by analyzing monitored video frame data associated with the live video received from the user computing device to determine at least one of:
that a swab used by the user during the drug test was inserted into an orifice at a proper insertion depth,
that a testing solution used during the drug test was correctly applied by the user to a test card associated with the drug test,
that the test card remains undisturbed during a predetermined dwell time associated with the drug test, and
that a horizontal or vertical distance between a patient reference element and the test reference element remains under a predetermined threshold value.
