Insurance authorization and the fax line at Clinical Life Labs

Sending a requisition to Clinical Life Labs
A test order for Clinical Life Labs — the tests requested, the specimen source, and the diagnosis — goes to the accessioning and client services office, which accessions it. The office reviews the indication so the result is reported against the right clinical question. Include the patient's name, date of birth, and a callback number so staff can log the order.

Faxing to Clinical Life Labs — FAQ
You can send to Clinical Life Labs any time, though routine paperwork is worked during business hours. Routine records and client services are staffed on weekdays. The laboratory team handles add-on and stat orders on the day's testing schedule. Plan routine requests for a weekday morning when the office is fully staffed.
It is, provided your fax service is HIPAA-compliant. An unsecured machine in a shared space cannot promise the confidentiality the rules expect. Send FAX Mail includes HIPAA from the Professional plan at $39.99/month and encrypts documents in transit for records bound for Clinical Life Labs. The safeguard is the service you use, not the act of faxing.
A number copied from a search result may be stale; Clinical Life Labs has the current one. Call Clinical Life Labs and ask for the accessioning and client services office or the office you are reaching. Confirming the line first is a two-minute step that prevents a misrouted record. Skip the stale listing and confirm the line at the source.
Start with a signed ROI form to Clinical Life Labs's records office. The records office confirms the fax destination for the authorization. List the patient identifiers, the collection dates, and the exact results you want so nothing is missed. Once processed, Clinical Life Labs releases the results and, when asked, the full test history.
Send the requisition to accessioning and the report request to records. Ask Clinical Life Labs which office receives specimen requisitions and which releases reports. For a second opinion, ask whether slides or blocks move by courier and what the release needs. Keep the transmission confirmation in case you need to show it went through. It is a small step that saves a follow-up call later.
