Labcorp turned me over to a collection agency for the unbelievable amount of, (are you ready?), $6.67! No lie. I don’t know how I managed to miss paying this stupid bill but I then received a collection notice. Deosn’t that cost them more than that amount? STUPID!!!

I went to LabCorp for extensive blood work. As far as I know the tests results are accurate, however when I received the bill for $568. I called them to request a payment plan, the woman I spoke with agreed that I could just send $50 a month. So I sent the payment and have sent the $50. payment electronically each month on the same date for 3 months. I started receiving bills which said that balance was overdue and balance is DUE IMMEDIATELY in big bold orange ink. Since I have never had a late payment for anything in my sixty years of life I called them back and after waiting on hold for over 20 minutes was told that the only way they could setup a payment plan was for me to give them our bank account numbers and make a payment that day. I explained that I had already spoken with someone that had told us that $50 payments were okay and I had just made a payment a week ago and another payment would be sent in 3 weeks, the person on the phone said that if we failed to give them our bank account info our account would be turned over to collections. I refused and the person told me to call back when I was ready to make a payment and at that time they would set up a payment schedule. I said look, I have already called twice and had no desire to wait on hold again or give them my bank info. Then informed them that I would just continue to send the monthly payments as I had in the past. Within a week of that phone conversation they turned the account over to LCA collections. As a cancer survivor, (even with health insurance) I have accumulated a huge amount of medical debt and have never had a problem working out payment arrangements with legitimate health providers so I am quite taken aback by the Gestapo tactics at LabCorp. Yesterday I went to see my doctor, she said she wanted me to go to LabCorp to have some blood drawn I told her no I will not be going there. I am perfectly happy with Quest Diagnostics, they have always been friendly and happily work with my wife and I even when there have been insurance mix ups which resulted in delayed payments. I will never visit LabCorp again and plan to provide my doctor with this website as she said she had never had a complaint about LabCorp.

I am 82 yrs. old, not an employee of Lab Corp. I have been using their Port St Lucie location since it opened about 10 years ago. Very satisfied. They have my insurance information, never ask for a credit card. Wait is short, technicians are very nice.I have found out in my lifetime that problems are usually solved if you want to take the time to resolve them. Lab Corp is also very easy to reach on the phone. And everyone associated with them are customer friendly. Very happy with them.

What is the problem. I went to Lab Corp
recently(have been using them for years) to get blood drawn.
I then received a bill for $136. for a test that wasn’t covered. I was upset but then in checking found I signed a from that the Dr. had advised me it wouldn’t be covered.
I called and advised them I couldn’t pay it right now. No problem. Pay what I can.
I just went to their website which does exist and paid my bill with no problem.
After years of using them I can’t complain about one thing. Blood draw doesn’t hurt, not long to wait, and have convenient locations. Personal is also very nice.

I had to take my son to LabCorp for a pediatrician regular blood test. The person at the front desk ask me to produce a credit card, I told her I have insurance, they still requested a credit card, I ask for doing what? They told me, no credit card no service. So even with insurance from United, they only moved forward after I gave them my credit card, and after that they gave a letter requesting my approval to charge my card 100% of the charges.
It this practice legal?

I have received 2 overpayment refunds the last 2 months then I received a past due notice and also those threatening calls on my trackfone using my valuable minutes. You get a preaddressed envelope with each refund check. Waste of paper-what do you do with envelope? Send them money again and get another refund check with another envelope to send back. If you owed for 20 different visits you get 20 bills a month not just 1 bill with everything added up. Another waste of a tree.

When my blood inr is not right I seem to have to go for tests weekly for 3 to 4 wks until it is right.Sometimes I think they do this for extra money. I have no insurance. Also 2 yrs ago whenI came to this town I found out I had blood clots in left leg. Was in hospital 4 days. The last day the nurse took ten viles of blood from me to do tests. My Doctors office also takes blood and sends off to lcoa. They took blood from me also and I was charged almost 700 dollars for those results. Wouldn’t they have done all the tests needed at the hospital with those 10 viles and sent the results to my Doctor?
