Laboratory Billing

INSURANCE-SOUTH CAROLINA RESIDENTS ONLY

The Greenwood Genetic Center will file the patient’s insurance. Please provide a copy of the front and back of the patient’s insurance card with the specimen. In addition, please include the insured’s date of birth and relationship to the patient as well as any pre-authorizations that may be needed prior to testing. Use the link below to determine which insurance groups are considered in network with GGC and which require pre-authorization. Please note that testing may be delayed if pre-authorization information is not received with the sample.

For patients with Medicare insurance, the patient’s guarantor will need to sign an Advanced Beneficiary Noticed (ABN) for all molecular or cytogenetic lab testing. Please include this signed form with the sample.
