Yes

Medicare will cover all tests preformed by a lab when ordered by a doctor, pharmacist or other health care professional.

 

One Test

Medicare will cover only ONE lab test per patient when NOT ordered by a doctor, pharmacist or other health care professional.

 

No

Original Medicare will NOT cover tests NOT performed by a lab, such as at home test kits. Some Medicare Advantage plans may cover them.
