You should not be getting surprised billing you should only have to pay your co pay.

Also, your doctor's office if the labwork is considered in-network with my plan.
Finally, there is with your policy what is called an EOC or Evidence of Coverage. A very lengthy document to go through so its best to call your Medicare Advantage Plan and ask about labwork and what the costs may be for you.

So if your doctor orders a test you can either call or have them send it to your insurance company to determine if they're going to pay for it and how much it's going to cost you

1. Speak with your Medicare Advaqntage Agent/Broker to get a full understanding of what co-pays you are responsible for prior to having medical procedures.
2. Get a full understanding from your Primary Care Doctor and/or Specialist what lab procedures are expected in the near future.
3. Contact your Medicare Advantage carrier and confirm the co-pays you are responsible for future procedures explained by your PCP and/or Specialist.

Your Medicare agent can also assist with any additional information that is unclear. As a Medicare agent, I am always happy to inquire with insurance carriers regarding coverage based on a client's specific plan and the lab/test in question.
