MyMedLab FAQ
Adding some tests to my cart removes others, why is that?
To stop unwanted duplicate test ordering, adding tests or panels into your cart that would duplicate an already present test will instead replace it in the cart. Please add one panel to your cart and add the other tests individually.
Can I receive a refund for unused testing?
We do offer refunds for testing. Orders may be refunded electronically up to three months from the order date. Orders that are three to six months old can be refunded but will need to be sent out via e-check. Orders over six months old cannot be refunded but can be used as credit towards other testing. Blood draw orders can be refunded in full. Kit orders require a $25 processing fee per kit to refund, the kits do not need to be returned. EXCEPT Kit orders from SabreScience require a $75 or 25% of the kit cost processing fee, whichever is LESS. SabreScience kits must be shipped back before the refund is issued.
Do you provide an itemized receipt for insurance purposes?
Yes, an itemized receipt for your testing is generated and placed in your account for every order. To access it, login to your account, click on Personal Health Record in the top right-hand corner of the screen, then on the left-hand side of the screen underneath the MyMedLab logo click My Orders, and finally click the tab in the middle of that page which says Order Receipts.
Where do I find my results?
In your personal Health Record under the results tab.
Can I place an order for multiple tests for my family/friends from the same account?
Due to restrictions from the lab, every order must come from a unique account for each individual. A new account must be made with a unique email for each person who would like testing. Once your orders are placed, contact Client Support with the order numbers to receive a refund for the difference in Panel Prices.
Are there any “hidden fees”? Do I have to pay the lab for the blood draw, or pay shipping for kits?
What you see at checkout is the total you pay, there are no other charges. The total you pay to us includes everything; you don’t have to pay any extra for the draw or for shipping kits in the US. There are select kit tests which are serum draw where the draw fee is not included, however this will be shown at the top of the test page if that is the case.
Do you accept insurance as payment for testing?
We are a “fee at time of service” provider, all testing must be paid for upfront by you. However, after you have purchased blood testing, a receipt is generated and placed in your account that will have all the information your insurance would need to reimburse you the cost, you will just need to forward it to them.
Do you accept payment via an HSA/FSA?
We do accept payment through an HSA/FSA. If your card is declined the most common reason is on the issuer’s end. If you contact your card issuer and let them know you are trying to make a medical purchase and give them the amount they will be able to pre-approve the transaction and allow you to pay.
Am I able to get prescriptions for medication created through you?
MyMedLab is a test provider only, we do not provide prescriptions for medication.
Can I have someone go over my results with me?
Yes, most results allow you to purchase an Expert Review where you get a set time, in 30 minute increments, to go over your results with one of our experts. To view available experts and the cost, just login to your MyMedLab account, navigate to your ‘My Results’ page, and underneath your results will be a clickable link that reads ‘Purchase a Review’. After purchasing the review, just return to that page and there will be a new link under your results that will allow you to schedule your review.
What lab locations can I use for the blood draw? Does it have to be listed on your site?
We are partnered with Quest Diagnostics for all blood draws, they are the only locations you can use to complete testing. You can use any Quest location for the draw, even if it is not listed on our site. Check Quest's site here.
Why can't I place an order for multiple of the same kit?
Our order system is setup to help avoid duplicate testing, this extends to kit tests. The easiest workaround to order multiple of the same kit is to order each test separately (make multiple orders), then contact Client Support with each order number. We can then alter the charge and apply the Panel Price cost to each kit. Please note, you CANNOT use this method to order kits for others from your own account. Each order must come from a unique account for each individual for results to be released.
