Preparing for Your Appointment
All the information you need before coming to your appointment.
Preparation
Some insurers require a referral form from your doctor or an authorization document from your insurance company. If you do not know your insurance company’s requirements, please contact your doctor’s office or the insurer’s customer service department for assistance.
Please call the lab at least two days before your test date. You will receive pre-test instructions, which may include stopping use of your breathing medications. If you do not follow the instructions, you might need to reschedule your test.
What to Bring on the Day of Your Test
Please bring photo identification and your insurance cards. If you have a referral form from your doctor or an authorization document from your insurance company, please bring those as well.
Refer to the description of the specific tests you are scheduled to take for additional information about what to wear or other requirements.
