Invoices for billable specimens are sent monthly to submitters.

If you want the invoice to go to a third party (i.e., Medicaid, Medicare, or an insurance company), you must fill in the appropriate information on the specimen request forms. This information includes:

• patient name
• patient date of birth
• patient insurance identification number
• name of the party to be billed
• physician provider number and contact phone number for questions, and
• CD-9 code (reason for the test).
