Show Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield’s contract with LabCorp and Quest Diagnostics provides laboratory testing services at reduced or no cost to Anthem health plan participants. Anthem Blue Access PPO plan participants: There is no employee cost share when using LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics. That means no deductible, no co-payment and no co-insurance. Anthem High Deductible plan participants: Any laboratory services received still are subject to deductible and co-insurance. However, because Anthem has negotiated lower rates with LabCorp and Quest Diagnostics, those on the high-deductible plan can minimize out-of-pocket expenses by using the services of these companies. The provider directory on the Anthem website does not yet contain all of the available locations. Case Western Reserve University employees can make an appointment at a facility by visiting the companies’ websites directly and can ask their doctors’ offices to refer them to a preferred lab when sent for testing.

ColoradoProvider CommunicationsNon-participating lab referralsMay 1, 2021 • Administrative This is a reminder to ensure that you are referring Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) members to participating labs. LabCorp is our preferred lab provider and offers a Single Source Solution to your testing needs. The relationship with LabCorp does not affect network hospital-based lab service providers, contracted pathologists, or contracted independent laboratories. Physicians may continue to refer to all par providers as they have in the past. Not only does your Anthem agreement obligate you to refer to participating labs where available, but members will only receive their full benefits from participating providers. As a result, referring your patient and our member to a non-participating lab may expose them to a greater financial responsibility. As a reminder, Quest Diagnostics is a non-participating laboratory for all lines of business in Colorado. Unfortunately, there are certain non-participating labs that are offering to waive or cap co-payments, coinsurance or deductibles to our members in order to increase their overall revenue. These practices undermine member benefits and may encourage over-utilization of services. These billing practices are also questionable in their legality. Such a practice may present violations under state or federal anti-kickback laws, and may constitute abuse of health insurance under the Colorado criminal code. For a listing of Anthem participating laboratories, please check our online directory. Go to anthem.com. Choose Providers, and Providers Overview.
