Is blood work covered with my annual physical?
April 30, 2024
It depends.
Your health plan covers preventive services, including some routine, preventive blood work, as outlined by the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
To be certain of whether or not your lab work will be covered, your provider can contact the Benefit Advocate team to verify that the labs they want to order for you will be covered by your health plan.
