Paying your bill\r\n
If you’re insured:

You will need to provide a credit, debit, or health savings card during your Quest Diagnostics visit. You’ll authorize an amount based on the estimated out-of-pocket cost of your lab test—but we’ll only charge your card if there’s a patient cost after we bill your insurance company. We don’t hold your funds and won’t charge you if your insurance pays the full amount. Learn more about Easy Pay™. Whether you’ll owe a portion of lab testing completely depends on your insurance. Your responsibilities typically include copays, deductibles, coinsurance, and any testing services not covered by your plan. If you have questions about your coverage, contact your insurance company.
\r\n
We also offer payment plans. If you need help paying for the tests you need, our Patient Assistance Program may be able to help.

If you’re uninsured:
\r\n
Uninsured patients are required to pay for their testing at the time of service. Ask your doctor about our discounted pricing for uninsured patients. If you need help paying for the tests you need, our Patient Assistance Program may be able to help.
