FOLX offers our members a negotiated rate to Quest Diagnostics, so we send most of our members to one of their facilities for labs. Members pay the negotiated rate (out of pocket) to FOLX directly. We bill members for these labs one month after the lab order is sent to Quest.
If you do not go to a Quest facility to perform your labs, you will need to provide payment in person (either out of pocket or using insurance) when you arrive to perform your labs. FOLX will not bill you if this is the case.
State-specific Quest exceptions:
- In NY, NJ & RI, patients must pay Quest directly (due to state laws), instead of charging FOLX for negotiated rates.
- There are no Quest locations in SD & ND.
