Affordable Labs in Houston

Have you ever been surprised by the cost of a medical bill for a blood draw at a lab, physician’s office, or hospital?  I know I have.  A family physician in Houston once tested my Vitamin D level, and my bill after insurance discounts was over $200.  That was just one test.  I was shocked!  Does it really cost that much to analyze a Vitamin D level from one blood sample?

Discount Blood Testing Houston

​​Some negotiated lab rates have huge upcharges with insurance companies.  The lack of price transparency in some aspects of medicine allows this to happen.  Don’t pay these high cost lab fees any longer.  Your Family Psychiatrist has established a collaborative relationship with a local lab company.  In exchange for a simplified payment solution on the behalf of Your Family Psychiatrist, our current patients are able to receive significant discounts on lab costs.  Some are downright cheap.  A screening thyroid test is under $10. 
 
Discounted labs through Your Family Psychiatrist are not always beneficial, like those getting free lab work.  For patients that have already hit their maximum out-of-pocket allowances with their insurance company, all labs may be free for the remainder of the year.  Certain health plans may cover all labs 100%, but this is not typical.  In such instances, you will want to continue to use your health insurance plan to receive no cost labs.  Discounted labs are beneficial for those with high deductibles or when you haven’t met your out-of-pocked maximums yet.  If you don’t have insurance at all, these discounted labs can be significantly cheaper than using a generic lab in Houston. 
 
We offer complete price transparency in that you will know the price of your labs well before you have your blood or other sample drawn.  In the event that your psychiatrist wants to order custom labs for less common conditions, we will work with our lab partner to develop a reduced price for your specific needs.  There will be no surprise bills in the mail. 
 
To receive such discounted lab services, it is important to discuss your labs with our staff before you have your blood drawn.  A special requisition sheet will be generated at our office and provided to you in advance of arriving at the lab facility.
