Laboratory Tests
1. LabCorp is the exclusive laboratory provider for BCBSGa members. All
laboratory studies must be referred to LabCorp except those listed on the
covered PCP and Specialist fee-for-service list under “Stat Laboratory” and
the Hospital Stat Lab List (see Appendix B).
2. The Hospital Stat Lab List should be used by providers who do not do Stat
Lab in the office but need results immediately.
3. Patient service centers are to be used only by providers who do not draw any
lab work in their office. LabCorp requisition forms must be completed and
accompany the member to the patient service center. Please ensure the
requisition is completely correctly.
4. Please see the provider directory for LabCorp’s laboratory requisition
procedures and location of LabCorp’s patient service centers.
5. To the extent the PCP draws any lab work or performs any laboratory
diagnostic testing in his/her office for any patient, the PCP shall perform
such in-office testing for BCBSGa members.
Please Note
: Any lab work referred to an out-of-network reference laboratory (lab
other than LabCorp) without precertification prior to services being rendered, will be
the financial responsibility of the referring physician (PCP).
