      I continue to receive bills from Quest despite requesting that they bill my secondary insurance. I am covered under Indiana State ********.Quest has been provided secondary insurance information during the blood draw, subsequent to the blood draw, and by way of BBB complaints. The secondary insurance info has not changed, and continues to be Anthem IN ******** with Member ID **************** most recent attempt to bill is under lab code, WDL, billing ID, **********, for date of service 1/24/2025. If there are other bills under my account, my secondary insurance should be billed for those, too.

      Dear ****** ***,

      Thank you for contacting Quest Diagnostics. I apologize for any inconvenience and frustrations you may have experienced regarding your invoice.

      Please know our billing system does not store secondary insurance information. A secondary carrier will not be billed automatically.After the primary carrier processes the claim and determines patient responsibility you would receive an invoice and then contact the billing team at Quest on the number on your invoice for us to submit a claim.

      Please disregard the invoice you have received as the claim is now being billed to your secondary insurance.

      You may contact the billing department at ************ for future invoices to process your claim to the secondary insurance.

      I appreciate the opportunity to respond to your concerns.

      Sincerely,
      *********

      A bill was paid 3/10/2025 in the amount of $181.40. An incorrect bill number was sent through Bill **** I received a late notice around the 21st and contacted the bank. They misinformed me that they would stop payment, so I sent a second payment with correct bill number. It was received and credited, but the first check with incorrect bill number was cashed by quest, but never credited or refunded. Bill pay company sent documentation twice with no cooperation from quest.

      Service was rendered on November 14, 2024, for my daughter Rhianna. There was an error with my **************** Provider having my daughters *** incorrect. I informed Quest at the first bill sent to me what the issue was and that it was corrected and they can resubmit the bill. This repeated several times into 2025. I also verified the *** was corrected with my ******************** and my **************** Provider and went online to Quest on April 18, 2025 and resubmitted the bill and health insurance information myself. The response email stated it would take up to 6 weeks however, if something was wrong or they needed more information they would contact me within 5 days. I have not been contacted. I did however receive a collection mail today from a debt collector stating I failed to pay my bill. The bill collector stated Quest is showing I never attempted to pay my bill and Quest will not resubmit to my ****************. Before submitting this claim, I called my Insurance Provider who stated Quest has NEVER submitted any bills for Rhianna.

      Please know that the Quest Diagnostics billing team processed the rebilling of the claim following the coordination of benefits. The invoice has been placed on hold to allow time for the insurance to reprocess the claim.

      I got a Bill from Quest for labs I had drawn for a specialist in ******* for fertility issues. Normally, I use *******. I once used Quest instead of Labcorp & the bill was wrong with them charging me the full amount for the labs with no insurance coverage for basic labs I should get coverage on. We eventually got it fixed, & I noted to never use them again. I ended up having to use them a few months later for these same tests due to scheduling issues with LabCorp, when to no surprise, I got my bill & the same thing was wrong with no coverage.I called Quest billing ***************) to explain the issue/mention what happened last time, & the *** was nice enough at first (I did not catch her name). She then came back after putting me on hold, & told me I was responsible for the entire bill. Given I had the exact same issue months prior, I was instantly frustrated. I prefaced my response by saying "I know this is not your fault, but this is ridiculous I'm now on the hook for the entire bill when it got fixed previously." Her response/tone to this was completely unprofessional. She accused me of "yelling at her" said "I know where this is going," "I don't know what you want me to do about it." I explained that I even prefaced my response by saying I know it's not her fault, but this is upsetting given it's a $1200 bill that got fixed previously. Again, she never apologized, acknowledged my frustration etc. It just seemed like she was having a bad day and didn't want to deal with this.I am in the business of customer ************************** could never get away with speaking to someone the way she spoke to me. Nor would I ever speak to someone like that. I welcome Quest to pull my call & then tell me I was "yelling at her." Also, just so Quest knows, my insurance called in with me a couple weeks later & guess what!? That person (*******) knew within 60 sec. what the issue was and helped get the bill fixed. This is unacceptable the previous person could have cost me $1,200.

      I went in for blood work on 4/30/25. After one week of not seeing any emails about my blood test results I decided to check online for my status. My status says pending. After trying for 30 minutes to get a customer ********************** number I called. That was exactly one week after being tested. The customer ********************** agent said my results will be sent by email later that day. If not call back.

      On May 5, 2025, I went to the Quest Diagnostics lab at *********************************************************** I arrived at 3:18 pm and have my location screenshot for proof. I had a stat lab ordered as well as a non-stat order I purchased online for cheaper, I was called back and told that since I did not have a print out of the Stat lab order, I would have to wait my turn in line on the standby list that I had also already signed up for at about 3:20 pm, as soon as I walked in. The woman told me I would be seen after the 5 people ahead of me. That was probably about 3:25 pm. I waited and waited and about 4:15 pm, another woman came out saying it was 4:15 and anybody on the stand by list would not be seen. I explained to her I had been there already for an hour and the other lady told me I would be called and seen after the people ahead of me. She said she announced it several times that they would not take anyone after 4:15. I told her not once had she came out and said that while I was in the waiting room or I would have questioned it. I explained I was there already for an hour, I did not check in after 4:15 pm, and I was told I would be seen by the other lady. She absolutely refused. This was blood work for IVF fertility treatments which are very time sensitive and needed to be done that day. Because these two women were unprofessional, unethical and didn't want to do their job, my IVF cycle was thrown off costing me a lot of money. This is absolutely unacceptable, and can be considered false advertising as Well considering they advertise they are open until 4:30. No patient should be there for an hour waiting, only to be told at the end they won't be seen. This is absolutely unacceptable for a healthcare provider.

      I am rejecting this response because:  I would like to add the names of the women who refused this urgent bloodwork needed for a time sensitive fertility treatment, ****** and *******. Please reach out to me for screenshots of my location that I took that day to prove the time I arrived at, as i'm sure the two individuals will lie and try to say I got there late, or try to lie and say they announced the 4:15 cut off while I was there, which would be a lie as I sat in the waiting room for an hour expecting to be seen only to be turned away because they didn't want to do their job! Please email me regarding this. I want to ensure these two individuals are reprimanded for their level of care to a patient undergoing very time sensitive fertility treatments.  I would also like to file a complaint with the primary department who oversees Quest Diagnostic Imaging Centers.

      We had a 3:40 p.m. appt at Quest in ******, on 5/6/25. We checked in at 3:32 p.m. and weren't called back until 4 p.m. The tech that took us back allowed myself and my 6yo to accompany my 21yo. A few mins later, another tech came in to draw her blood. Right off the bat, she abruptly told me, with attitude, that my 6yo and I could not be in the room with my 21yo. When I advised her that I had the orders for the bloodwork in an email, she told me I had to go into the waiting room to obtain the email address off of the back of the door to forward the orders. I already had the email pulled up and ready to forward and asked her to give me the email addr. She advised again that the email addr was on the back of the door in the waiting room. She had my 21yo go back with us to the waiting room with no further instruction once we forwarded the email. As 3 diff techs came into the waiting room to call back the next patients, I asked how we would fall back into the queue. None of them ever came back with an answer. I then knocked on the door and when the 4th tech came to the door, I let her know that I had already asked 3 techs for **** and no one came back with an answer. When that 4th tech failed to return, I checked back in and said I was there as a walk in. A 5th tech came out and I let her know that I checked in as a walk in to get someone to FINALLY assist us with our appt that was now 40 mins past due. I said it was unacceptable and my daughter was recently diagnosed with something that made it difficult for her to walk/sit for extended periods of time. The tech originally set to do the blood draw was not nice, and was abrupt in her approach of not being able to stay with my 21yo who was already anxious and wanting me to be with her. She clearly lacked bedside manners and was not even helpful in obtaining the orders. The sup left for the day 15 mins. prior to closing. I was also told, when asking the name of the original tech, that they were not able to disclose names.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

      ********* is incredible! She politely listened as I explained to her in great detail my experience that afternoon.

      She was so kind, reassuring, and an absolute sweetheart to talk to. I felt that I was heard and she apologized profusely for the experience we had encountered that day. 

      I have no doubt that our next experience will be flawless.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
