The Lab Test Requisition, also known as a Lab Order, is the formal document which tells the laboratory what tests you need to have performed. Information that can be found on the requisition includes:
- Patient Name
- Patient Demographics
- Ordering Physician
- Billing Type
Why Should I Take My Requisition With Me To the Lab?
When you purchase a test(s) through Grassroots Labs, you order is automatically transmitted to Quest Diagnostic, our national laboratory provider. When your order is completed, every Quest Testing Center has your information on file and can process your labs.
We recommend that Grassroots Labs customers print out their requisition for their tests and take it with them to the testing center. We encourage this because it can eliminate any possible issues at the the testing center, for example if the testing centers computers are down for some reason or if there is confusion for the testing center staff about who will pay for the lab tests.
Having your requisition provides you with a guaranteed way of making sure that you get your tests performed quickly and without any problems.
