Summary
EmblemHealth requires providers to refer members to participating laboratories (Quest Diagnostics, Labcorp, and others) for outpatient lab testing per their provider contracts. Providers must establish accounts with these labs if they don't already have them.
Action Required
Immediately: Verify all EmblemHealth members are referred only to participating laboratories listed at emblemhealth.com/lablist. If you don't have accounts with Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp, establish accounts by calling Quest at 866-697-8378 or Labcorp at 888-522-2677. Update referral processes to ensure compliance with participation agreements.
