Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 When a patient is ordered for a lab test CA19-9 or CEA usually mass health will not cover these tests unless the pt has a diagnosis of colon cancer,pancreatic cancer or any GI cancer but it is not covered for HCC. If we tell the lab to run it anyway then the hospital picks up the cost from what I understand. What should we be doing in this situation if the MD ordered it? Cancel the tests or tell them to run it anyway? Joni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
