Traditional Medicare insured patients who have a Lipid Panel or Vitamin D 25 ordered more than once per 12 months are not covered due to medical necessity.*
If testing is indicated, you will need to provide an appropriately executed Advance Beneficiary Notice (ABN) for Corewell Health Southeast Laboratories and Advance Beneficiary Notice for Corewell Health Southwest and West Laboratories signed by the patient indicating they would like testing and understand they may be financially responsible for payment (ABN: Option 1). ABN must be submitted with specimen.
For testing ordered inside this frequency range without an ABN, Corewell Health will implement an automatic cancellation.
