Billing and Financial Responsibility

By signing below, I authorize the laboratory to bill my insurance and to use or disclose protected health information necessary for claims processing and payment. I understand I remain financially responsible for charges not covered by insurance.

Authorization and Consent

I authorize the laboratory to perform the tests ordered by the ordering provider. I understand that laboratory testing may involve collection, storage, and analysis of bodily specimens. I consent to the release of laboratory results to the ordering provider, to my health insurer for payment purposes, and to other entities as required by law.

I acknowledge I have received information about the nature and purpose of the tests I am consenting to, including reasonable expectation of benefits and common limitations. I understand that some tests may produce incidental findings and that the laboratory will report clinically significant results to the ordering provider.

I understand I may withdraw this authorization at any time by submitting written revocation to the laboratory, except to the extent the laboratory has already acted in reliance on this authorization. This authorization will expire on the date entered below or upon one year from the date of my signature if no expiration date is provided.

Privacy Acknowledgment (HIPAA)

I acknowledge that I have been offered or received the laboratory's Notice of Privacy Practices describing how my protected health information may be used and disclosed. I understand my rights to access my health records and to request restrictions on certain uses and disclosures, subject to law.

Specimen Retention, Disposal & Liability

The laboratory retains specimens for a period consistent with applicable regulations and internal policy. If I request return or transfer of the specimen, additional handling fees may apply. The laboratory's liability for lost or compromised specimens is limited to the direct cost of testing unless otherwise required by law.

I agree to indemnify and hold the laboratory harmless for claims arising from incorrect or incomplete information provided by me or my practitioner, and for routine delays in testing not caused by gross negligence.
