Can I use my health insurance?
Yes. If you're using insurance, Panhandle CPR can assist with the laboratory requisition process and direct you to Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp for collection. The performing laboratory will handle applicable insurance billing. Coverage, deductibles, copays and other patient responsibility depend on your specific insurance plan.
Do you draw the blood at Panhandle CPR if I'm using insurance?
For the insurance pathway, the collection is completed through Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp. Panhandle CPR helps coordinate the requisition and gets you pointed in the right direction.
What if I don't have insurance?
That's exactly where our self-pay program can help. We offer discounted cash-pay laboratory testing, including bundled panels, without requiring health insurance.
Is self-pay only for people without insurance?
No. You may choose self-pay even if you have insurance. Some people prefer knowing the price up front or choose not to submit a particular test through their insurance.
Are your prices really lower?
Our self-pay program is specifically structured around discounted laboratory pricing. Because prices can vary by test, laboratory and provider, we encourage you to compare the total price for the exact testing you need. We'll tell you our current self-pay price before you purchase.
Can you tell me which tests I should order?
We can explain the tests and panels we offer, but laboratory testing should be selected based on your healthcare needs. If you're unsure which testing is medically appropriate, talk with your healthcare provider.
