Our Laboratory services are a value-added health benefit that can help save you money on outpatient laboratory testing. When you show your healthcare provider your Quest Diagnostics® card to obtain outpatient testing, there is no cost to you! There are no copays, no deductibles, and no coinsurance.
To receive the benefits of the Quest Diagnostics® Advanced program, you must present your Quest Diagnostics® card or healthcare ID card with the Quest Diagnostics® logo on it at the time of each service, and request your provider send your laboratory testing order to Quest Diagnostics.
The Quest Diagnostic Advanced Lab Program is also called QuestSelect®. This program allows you to obtain outpatient laboratory testing* at no cost to you. When your doctor orders lab testing, you can show your QuestSelect® card and use your QuestSelect® benefit. Your physician or phlebotomist must indicate that you have QuestSelect® coverage on a Quest Diagnostics requisition which accompanies your specimens to Quest Diagnostics.
