Yasko Protocal-Medicare, And what is owed a lab

[Guest guest]

HI All,

I have recently been reseaching the cost of this protocal when it

comes to the lab tests that are used with it to monitor my progress.

This is how it comes down. This is Doctors Data Lab only:

The Urine Ammino Acid test is normally $260.00. It is covered in

full by medicare.

The Comprehensive Stool Anaylsis is normally $331.00. Medicare pays

part of this. Patient is billed the balance of about $108.00

Urine Toxic Metals test: No coverage from Medicare on this. Normally

runs $110.00 but with a pre-pay from the patient of $55.00, that is

all that is owed.

Urine Toxic Metals & Essentials Elements test: Normally runs

$190.00. Medicare does not cover this test. Pre-pay by the patient

of $99.00 and then that is all that is owed.

Fecals Metals test. No coverage by Medicare. Pre-pay by patient of

$99.00.

The MAP test is done by Genovations and the Organic Acids test is

done by Great Smokies to the best of my knowledge. I have not

contacted those labs as of yet.

Hi Janet,

Great post . . to the point helpful info.

Do you prepay right on the form with your credit card info? or do you have to

call Doctor's Data?

Thanks, Sue T

Hi Sue,

I have talked to and Jackie over at DD in the billing dept. I did not

get the feeling one had to call them first. Just send the money.

Always the best,

Janet
