How To Get Started

Aven Clinic utilizes a number of unique labs to get down to the root cause of a patient’s health issues. Although we do not process insurance in our office, we will provide your insurance information on any laboratory paperwork we submit so that your insurer will be billed appropriately.

In the course of an appointment, if labs are drawn, a blood draw fee may be incurred by the patient to cover the cost of materials and shipping. If the patient’s insurance provider only covers labs performed at places such as Quest or LabCorp, please let us know ahead of time, so Aven Clinic can provide the patient with the appropriate lab order. Please keep in mind that lab orders are considered prescriptions, and it is a requirement that you are an established patient before we order any labs for you.

In some instances, an insurer may not cover the total cost of the labs based on the patient’s policy. It is the patient’s responsibility to know the details of their insurance policy and make an informed decision on whether to proceed with certain labs. Aven Clinic cannot guarantee insurance coverage of any lab test and is not responsible for any balance owed to the lab by the patient unless a special arrangement has been made between the patient and Aven Clinic.

Aven Clinic has a pre-negotiated cash rate for certain tests. This may make it cost effective for the patient to pay cash for the test. Please make sure to have your insurance information with you on the day the labs are drawn.
