does insurance cover this cost?
VenaCare NW does not submit claims to any insurance companies.
We can give our patients and clients an invoice with CPT and diagnosis codes only after they have paid for the service so that they can submit to their insurance company to try and get reimbursed for our Concierge service.
For medically necessary laboratory testing, your doctor will create a requisition for your blood tests and fax or email it to us, which is generally covered by the patient's insurance.
We take care to make sure all our patient's insurance information is on the orders so that the labs that do the testing have no issues.
(You are still responsible to call client services at your insurance carrier regarding any questions about them paying for the tests)

WHAT LABORATORIES WILL BE DOING THE ACTUAL TESTING?
VenaCare NW NW has been working with these labs since 2008 to properly test our patient's samples.
We send your samples to the laboratory that your insurance governs and your physicians office has an account with so that they can retrieve results as soon as they are completed.
We work with the laboratories, resolving any issues that might arise before or during testing, but we are not responsible for any mistakes made by the testing laboratories.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT OBTAIN YOUR SAMPLE?
When we're scheduling a service, we ask for good communication from the patient or POC in notifying us of whether or not the patient is a "hard stick" so that we can dispatch a technician with the skills needed to complete the job the first time.
In the rare circumstance that the sample could not be collected by the technician, we will call the patient and reschedule for the next available date, and we will dispatch a senior member of the team to come to your home.
The patient will not be charged for the missed visit; we will only charge once the sample is collected and taken to the laboratory for testing.
