Written and Verbal Orders
All tests must have a written order on file.
Any verbal orders for tests, including tests added on to a specimen already in the lab, must be followed up by a request for a written order.
An employee who receives a verbal or add-on order must follow procedures to ensure that a follow-up written order is requested.
It is against Medicare regulations to bill extra for calculated test results; only tests that are actually performed may be billed.
It is against the law to bill for the same tests or services twice (duplicate billing).
It is against the law to bill for quality control tests or tests performed multiple times to check or verify the results.
