Has anyone had this blood test? It tests for genetic disorders. I received a $9650 bill for this test and hope and pray Medicare will cover it??? Thank you for any advice ! I did get a letter saying Medicare did not pay for it?

Medicare covered the cost of the test for my Husband. I cannot remember if there was a process to getting it covered or not.

Gaurdant Health - GH is a very good albeit risky stock worthy of considering of investment. I’m prostate cancer positive but hey, this is a long term bet…

I used Foundation Medicine for genetic testing of my biopsy tissue. Because of my low income of Social Security and a pension. They offered me a scholarship that covered the cost. Maybe Guardant has a similar subsidy.

Not what you're looking for?
