  • Letter to Our Valued Patient | CDL

    Learn why our practice no longer accepts PPO insurance or Anthem HealthKeepers, what this change means for your care, and how we continue to prioritize accessible, patient‑focused treatment. Dear Valued Patient, We understand that navigating lab testing and insurance coverage can be confusing, stressful, and sometimes frustrating. Many patients expect that medically necessary lab tests will be fully covered by their insurance, only to be surprised by bills or claim denials. We want to take a moment to explain why this happens, and what options are available to you. Why Insurance Coverage Can Be Complicated Insurance companies often control which laboratories they will reimburse, and many have exclusive agreements with specific “preferred” labs. Even if your doctor orders a test that is medically necessary and has a preferred laboratory they wish to send it to, insurance may refuse to pay if the lab performing it is not on the insurer’s approved list. In addition: Claims can be denied for administrative reasons, not because the test lacks medical necessity. In 2023, studies showed that nearly 1 in 5 claims across commercial plans were denied, with out-of-network labs denied more than one-third of the time. Negotiated rates may not reflect the true cost of testing, leaving smaller or independent labs out-of-network and limiting patient choice. Large insurers sometimes rely on high-volume national labs (like LabCorp or Quest), which must process thousands of samples and often face delays, lost specimens, or reporting outside the necessary timeframe . “Insurance networks and claim rules can make testing feel more like a barrier than a service. That’s why we focus on transparency and patient choice.” Your Options: Affordable, Transparent Self-Pay To make testing accessible and predictable, we offer affordable self-pay pricing. Because all of our testing is performed in-house, locally, we can provide: Lower prices than national lab chains Faster turnaround times Greater accuracy and reliability If you choose to pay out-of-pocket, we will provide a superbill containing everything your insurance company needs to process a claim. This includes: CPT codes for all tests performed Diagnosis codes Our provider identifiers (NPIs) Itemized charges and documentation We are happy to assist you with any additional paperwork or information your insurer may request. Even if the claim is initially denied, we can provide supporting documentation to help you appeal. “We want you to have control over your care — and the ability to submit claims to your insurance if you wish.” Why Our Lab is Different Unlike large national laboratories: Everything is processed locally, in-house, giving us control over quality and timing We avoid unnecessary shipping, which reduces risk of lost or misreported samples Our focus is on patient-centered service, not volume This means you get your results faster, accurately, and at a fraction of the cost. We Are Here to Help We understand this situation is not your fault, and it’s not your choice. Insurance networks, coverage rules, and reimbursement policies are complex — even for providers. Our commitment is simple: Provide high-quality testing you can trust Offer transparent, affordable pricing Support you in navigating insurance reimbursement whenever possible “With self-pay options and superbill support, you can access the testing you need without unnecessary delays or surprises.” Take Action Today We make it simple to access testing services on your terms: If you have questions or need guidance about insurance or billing, please contact our team — we are happy to walk you through every step.

  • Hemoglobin A1C

    Ordering information regarding a Hemoglobin A1C test for Clinical Diagnostic Laboratories. Hemoglobin A1C Ordering Recommendation The Hemoglobin A1c test is a vital tool for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes mellitus, as well as assessing prediabetes. Diagnostic levels are marked by values greater than or equal to 6.5%, while monitoring involves tracking long-term glycemic control in diabetes patients. Additionally, values between 5.7% and 6.4% signal an increased risk of developing diabetes. For patients with hemoglobin variants lacking hemoglobin A, the Fructosamine test is preferred for monitoring long-term glycemic control. Mnemonic Methodology Quantitative Capillary Electrophoresis Performed Mon-Sat Reported Within 1-2 days New York DOH Approval Status This test is New York DOH approved. Specimen Required Patient Preparation: Collect: Lavender (EDTA) Specimen Preparation: Transport whole blood in original tube. (Min: 1 mL) Storage/Transport Temperature: Refrigerated. Unacceptable Conditions: Tissue or urine. Samples frozen after 8 hrs of collection and samples frozen at temperatures less than -70C. Remarks: Stability: Ambient: 72 hours; Refrigerated: 1 week; Frozen: 3 months (Must be frozen within 8 hrs of collection at -70 to -80C) Reference Interval Components Available Separately Reference Interval No Hemoglobin A1C Less than 5.7 percent No Estimated Average Glucose By report Interpretive Data HbA1c values of 5.7-6.4 percent indicate an increased risk for developing diabetes mellitus. HbA1c values greater than or equal to 6.5 percent are diagnostic of diabetes mellitus. For diagnosis of diabetes in individuals without unequivocal hyperglycemia, results should be confirmed by repeat testing. Note This assay accurately measures hemoglobin A1c even in the presence of hemoglobin variants, provided hemoglobin A is present. For patients with known hemoglobin variants who lack hemoglobin A, it is recommended to monitor long-term glycemic control using the Fructosamine test CPT Code 83036 Components Component Test Code 0070427 0070428 Component Chart Name Estimated Average Glucose LOINC Hemoglobin A1C 27353-2 4548-4 Aliases Hemoglobin A1C A1C A1C Hemoglobin Glycated Hemoglobin Glyco HGB Glyco-Hb Glycosylated Hemoglobin HA1C HbA1c Hemoglobin A1C Hemoglobin A1C, Blood
