I moved to the East coast when I retired and had never heard of Quest Diagnostics. After my first lab experience, they sent me a bill for the amount that Medicare would not pay. Quest never asked me for my secondary insurance information - I assumed that they had gotten this info from my clinic since the two were in the same building - just across the hall. But instead, after they billed me a second time, they immediately reported me to the local credit services agency as a deadbeat who didn’t pay his bills. Again, I had assumed that they were interacting with my secondary insurance company and billing them, but they never bothered to even ask me for this information. I give Quest’s Customer Service and Billing Dept an “F” for that group’s poor performance!

I have had blood work done at Quest Diagnostics in Lubbock, TX for many years. There used to be someone at the front desk to help with questions or direct you on how to sign in. This morning when I got to Quest to have blood work done that had a new sign-in program and no one to explain. I did what the screen asked. I was a walk-in and the screen asked me that. There were five people that were walk-ins that came in after me and they begin to be called back. I asked the technician when she called the first lady back that had come in after me and she went and got another tech who when she came out called in someone else, while I was trying to explain that I had been there waiting.
So two people that were walk-ins after me were called in before me. I told her I had done what the machine told me and she proceeded to tell me that I had done it wrong and she would show me. The machine told me when I signed in that the next appointment would be at 9:40. I watched all five people that signed in after me get to a different screen, so I didn't know what I had done wrong but was clearly going to be put in my place by being made to wait until there was no one else. I said no thanks and walked out and went to another place and was waited on in a matter of three minutes. I do not recommend this place. I am computer savvy and own two small businesses and would never treat a customer like I was treated.

I have been using Quest Diagnostics in the last few years and the service was Okay, but right now in my opinion it is bad. This week alone I made two online appointments, the first one on the 13th of Feb, 2023, I got a confirmation, but it did not go through, and I could not get my lab tests done. I rescheduled it for Wed, Feb 15th, it was confirmed by Quest Diagnostics, but they did not schedule it for the address I had requested, I went to the appointment and could not get the tests done. I am scheduling the tests for the 3rd time around. I hope it will work, otherwise, there will be consequences against this company. Their website is so unreliable that it is difficult even to enter info from the health insurance company.

The Quest Diagnostics lab in Montgomery, Alabama: 10710 Chantilly Pkwy, Montgomery, AL 36117, USA - requires you wait in a room that is, at best, 10' x 15', with a large flatscreen monitor on one wall which eventually informs you when they're ready to perform your labs. When I arrived, I was introduced to a tiny room, already occupied with four other individuals, and we all waited, in close proximity to each other as the small chairs placed us side-by-side. Despite wearing a mask, I became ill for nearly an entire week after this appointment - a COLD virus. All I can say is: thank God it wasn't the Coronavirus, to which me and my spouse are particularly vulnerable. You should be thankful, too, Quest, because if it had been COVID, we'd be talking litigation.

This company is a pile of absolute hot garbage. You have absolute terrible customer service, 0 timely manner with anything, inefficient reporting and resulting processes that are the absolute worst. I have had the displeasure of having to use your services for all my clinicals for my grad school and undergrad and think this company is an absolute piss poor example for any business model or anything even resembling efficiency. I absolutely hate that I am forced to use your services for school and have no idea why or how you keep any business at all.

I have a medicare plan B and was unsure if my blood test would be covered. Impossible talking to anybody upfront about the cost or not for it. I had to learn that it would cost me $150 while at the lab to do the blood work. Waste my time and the technician's time. Good Luck!

Hard to check in, even harder to make reservation by phone. All I needed was to drop off specimen authorized by my doctor the day before. 3 tries to create an account to check results. Even after creating an account was not able to pull up results without answering more questions on a page I could not completely load. Can’t get anyone by phone to check results. What a pain. Was way better when a real person was on call at check in window. Will try to avoid in the future.

I just returned from Quest at Peachland in Port Charlotte and I'm livid. I had bloodwork done two days ago and my doctor requested a 24 hour urine sample. I followed the instructions from the first thing one morning until the first thing the next morning. It was a royal pain having to do that every time I had to urinate. I had to keep it refrigerated at all times and was told to return the large jug of urine to the lab when I was finished. When I arrived at the lab the next morning, it was busy. I asked if I could go in front of people just to drop off the jug. No problem with the customers, but the lady behind the desk said I must check in at the kiosk. I told her that I was just dropping off a sample. She said it didn't matter that I had to check in. There was no provision for dropping off a sample, so I had to check in as a walk-in for regular lab work.
When I saw the queue for people with appointments compared to the number of people waiting as walk-ins, I figured that I'd be there for at least an hour or more, sitting in the room with my jug of urine. Finally after about 15 minutes the lady opened the door to let someone else in and I quickly put the jug inside the door. It had my name and all other info on it, and she said "I can't take that" in a not-so-friendly voice. I said to her that I'm not waiting to drop off a urine sample. She said that she'd throw it out, and I told her to go ahead and do what she had to do. So 24 hours of following instructions for naught. Why didn't they tell me upfront that I needed an appointment to drop the sample off? I will never go to Quest again. Not only is the procedure ridiculous in my opinion just to drop off a sample, it's embarrassing to have to sit in a full waiting room with your jug of urine between your feet.

The lab is virtually empty and I'm waiting, as if being punished, for being a late for an appointment. They're way too rigid with their rules and leave NO flexibility for ANY exceptions. All I have to do is drop off a specimen, there should be an easier way.

Dear Quest Diagnostics Lab Compliance Officer,
Location: Bristol Quest Diagnostics, 935 Farmington Avenue, Bristol, CT 06010 (860) 516-5902. I am writing to express my deep frustration and disappointment with the care my child received at your facility today. Upon arrival, my child, who is a transgender individual, came in for a scheduled blood work appointment. A female staff member verified system is working. My daughter utilized system and checked in.
We were told to wait in the car and that we would receive a text when it was time to come in. However, after waiting for an extended period of time, we were not texted, and the facility closed without my child receiving the necessary care. No one contacted us to let us know, nor granted our check in 1.5 hours prior to closure. My phone calls were not answered.
This lack of care and consideration is unacceptable, especially given the already difficult circumstances that my child faces as a transgender individual. It is important that all individuals, regardless of their gender identity, receive the necessary medical care and treatment they need. I urge you to review your policies and procedures to ensure that all patients, including transgender individuals, are treated with the respect and care that they deserve. I hope to hear back from you regarding this matter and any steps that will be taken to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
Sincerely,

I will be looking for a different company to get my lab work done. Every time I have lab work done with them, I keep receiving statements that show that I have a balance. They seem not to understand that I have a primary and a secondary insurance. They either bill my primary or my secondary insurance but they never bill them in the right order or they will only bill either one of them. I understand if the problem happened once or twice but it happens every time I get lab work done. Currently, I am disputing a bill because they filed the claim with my secondary insurance first and they denied it. They also stated that I am not responsible for any portion of the bill. I keep receiving emails from Quest requesting information that I have already sent them. I am done with Quest and I will never recommend them to anyone.

I will look for another lab next time. I tried twice to get appointments off of their web page and they never "took." The last one I got a designated time but when I showed up they had no record. When you go to the Quest website you get all of this corporate "crap" and have to hunt for appointments. I don't care about their careers and the latest news flashes. When I finally found the appointment portal, the first question asks "what tests have you purchased." I DON'T PREPURCHASE TESTS! My insurance pays for it. There's just a lot of useless hoops to jump through and found the whole experience inefficient. PLUS there is NO phone number to call to ask a question.
I noticed once I arrived at the local lab that they no longer have a customer attendant at a front desk. They have that section closed off and the lights OFF. Trying to save a few bucks? I needed to request an additional doctor to send the results to but was told to go back to the waiting room because I had to start my paperwork "all over again." Having absolutely minimal staff in a medical establishment is useless. Something is seriously wrong with their human resources and upper management.

I cannot believe how low the scumbag insurance companies have brought medical care and customer service. Check in on a pad with the only human being a uniformed security guard who makes sure you and the rest of the animals stay in line. Out of hand sanitizer and when reported - just a shrug. The only person I felt worse for than us victims was the poor staff working in little dark rooms pulling blood. Disgusting and pathetic only start to describe how our medical care.

I ordered bloodwork through Jason Health. They are working with local Quest Diagnostic branches. I read all the bad reviews about Quest after I scheduled the appointment with them and was really concerned. But in the end, I can't say anything bad about them. Scheduling was easy, I went to their branch in Fridley, MN, checked in on a computer terminal with ease. I was in and out within 30 minutes. The nurse practitioner who took my blood sample was nice and very professional. I received my test result 2 days later. Highly recommended.

Got bloodwork done, horrific experience. They missed the vein over 5x. Couldn't get the bloodwork done on time so they charged me for 2 different days in full for the single time that I was there. Then I paid the amount and they also sold the amount to multiple collections agencies. Had to go through an entire workday of phone calls and emails with credit companies and collectors to get everything removed. TSA: DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO GO ANYWHERE ELSE TO NOT DEAL WITH THESE THIEVES.

I changed from Lapcorp to Quest Diagnostics after moving to Lake County in northern California. On November 10, I had blood work done and now 10 days later there is still no results. After two phone calls, I am told that one of the tests is at a specialty lab in southern California, and both times was assured test results should be back within 2 days. This same test done by Lapcorp never took over 4 days.
In addition, this lab only has one phlebotomy technician, and no one else in the building to ask about cost. When I asked how much the tests would cost, I was told after everything was entered into their database we would know. That never happened, but instead there was a message saying the fees could not be given at that time. "I still do not know the charge." I never experienced this practice of not having billing personal in the building to help customers. Quest Diagnostics puts profits before customers, and moving into the future I will travel out of the County for any testing needs.

When paying your bill on a 3rd party website for Quest, you will be asked to sign up for automatic bill pay. DO NOT DO IT! I have spent hours online and can not find anywhere how to cancel it. Each time I reach a representative (after 20 minutes on hold), they tell me they will forward me to someone else - then I am hung up on. My guess is, the 3rd party company is making money off of each person they get to sign up for "automatic bill pay" and they make it impossible for you to get out of it!

On the date of service I gave Quest my insurance card. I told them it was NEW insurance. My insurance company denied the claim because Quest used my previous insurance when submitting the claim. I have called Quest 4-5 times trying to resolve this. I am now in collections. I am 100% sure if Quest had submitted the correct insurance information with the claim, my insurance company would have paid the majority of the bill. I had a three way call with my insurance company and Quest today. My insurance company said we are past the 95 day deadline and the claim will most likely be denied.

Long waiting time (over 1 hour) even as I had an appointment. After the paperwork was done the associate assured that finding my blood is the easy way. Wrong. Beside that, there was no communication. She had 3 tries in my right arm and then I gave up and wanted the paperwork returned. Now the associate accused me of being horrible. Who was not professional here? Interesting experience.

Do NOT pay your bill with anything but a check or money order. They've taken 5 unauthorized payments off of my card and when I call to contest it I'm told they can reverse it, but it will take upwards of 20 days. So I spent several paydays broke since the first unauthorized payment came out of my account right after paying them. Then the next payday they took not just 1 payment... but 3. I suffered through until the next payday.
After the stunt they pulled I only owed about $10. Low and behold they've decided to take another unauthorized $60 payment from my account. I now have to cancel that card and have it replaced to make sure they can't keep taking from it. On top of all of that, I was making payment through their website. It lumps any bills from them together with no option to pay each bill individually. I'm making payments thinking that the payments are going equally toward each bill when I get a letter in the mail that they've sent 1 of them to collections. When I call the company about it, I'm told that the website doesn't allow partial payments. Then how have I been paying this whole time? Absolute nightmare of a company that deserves to go under. I hope I never have to deal with them again.

I went to Quest Diagnostics 3 months ago to have blood drawn. My insurance card was given. Someone changed the name of my insurance. I kept trying to correct the name with them. All they would do is talk over me. I tried to do it myself online. The system would not let me. It kept saying (call this number). I received a call from quest Diagnostics stating that I need to make a payment. I said okay, please send me an invoice thru the mail, I will start making payments until the insurance kicks in. Send me monthly statement. I received one statement. I sent a payment thru the mail. Next month, I sent a payment for September. They didn't mail me a invoice.
October, I sent a payment thru the mail. They didn't mail me an invoice. Today, I went to quest diagnostics. I was told that I couldn't be seen because, I was in collections. I said, how can that be when I have been making monthly payments. I even tried to get Quest Diagnostics to resubmit my claim but, oh no. It has been really hard dealing with them.

My Quest Lab bill has a customer service number of 844.6561321. I called and got an insurance salesman trying to resell my UHC medical dual plan again. He only sold insurance and told me to go online- it does not work since I don't have the account number on the bill. So I called customer service at 4:45 pm, and I got a customer service agent who could not help and transferred me to a recorded line that they were now closed at 5 pm after waiting 15 minutes: no customer service help and a complete waste of time. So to update an insurance policy ID, member number, and group is so easy with Blue Cross or United HealthCare and other insurance carriers, so nothing was done after 1-hour redirects, and I can't help us. My opinion advice is not to use Quest Lab for any service. Use anyone else so they can get it right when you have a service billing update done right- maybe- Ug.

0 stars!! In short, Quest Diagnostics is terrible. DO NOT ALLOW YOUR TESTS TO GO HERE! They will inform you that they accept payments, cash your payments, and then still send you to collections with no communications and no assistance on the matter. Quest cashed my payment 10/12, then sent my account to collections just 8 days later.
It is acceptable for Quest to ASSUME that patients just know to contact them to set a plan up (even though they already cashed my check, so things looked completely fine on my end and there was no reason to call). If it is acceptable for Quest to ASSUME I knew I was required to contact them, why is it not acceptable for me to have ASSUMED they had me on a payment plan since they had cashed my check? It is completely unacceptable that they double cross patients and someone needs held accountable.

I will never use Quest Diagnostics again. They're handling of my wife's covid testing was ridiculous. It took "four" days to get the results. Which caused a great deal of distress, because my wife needed the results before she could have surgery. And you can NOT talk to anyone who knows anything or can do anything for you. You can't get past the first layer "screen readers". There is no contact information, no email, just the one phone number, which just gets to the first and only layer. The company hides behind.

I used to do walk-ins before they changed to this new system. I came in as walk-in and was put in Standby queue. My position on list at #4 did not change at all. After waiting over 3 hours I inquired as to what was up. They take appointments first, then stats then standbys. They need to specify that appointments are necessary and standbys may not be served.
They should also take maybe 1 standby every 30 or 45 minutes. People have legitimate reasons for not making an appointment. I had fasted so I was not feeling well and I was stiff from sitting for that long. I had to leave and get something to eat or pass out. They maybe overworked but their new system sucks and is a disservice to patients. The check-in system seemed to have many bugs as observed for 3 hours. Some patients who checked in did not get in a queue. So impersonal now it was a horrible experience. Too bad we have to put up with this because we need the lab tests for our health.

They dropped the full charge on me who have insurance because of their own errors of not trying to find the correct information. Then they sent the charge to collections!!!! After calling the insurance company myself, calling the Dr. Office myself, asking the Dr. Office myself to send records to the insurance company, the amount I should owe was nothing compared to what they charged me. I worked for their ignorance and slacking to find the information needed so I don’t get “wrongfully“ charged. They never tell the patient “upfront”, "This lab work may cost you…$." They just do the test then force the patient to pay “after” the fact!!! This applies to uninsured patients that I know. They did the test despite knowing the patient has no insurance without disclosing the cost of the test upfront. Then they sent them a bill for $$$$. They need to be accountable and provide all patients with the amount they might be responsible for upfront!!!

UPDATED 9/26/2022: I had a blood panel drawn at Quest Labs that my doctor ordered. After 2 weeks with no results I called the 800 number and was treated with apathy and rudeness. When the results finally came in a test was missing. The report read "cannot run test due to improper storage." This was an expensive test. I have written Quest on their site and have not heard back. Quest took my money, botched a test, and walked away. This goes beyond incompetency to dishonesty. I have not been offered a refund, a repeat test, or even an apology. My insurance will not pay twice for the same test, I will have to pay out of pocket for Quest's dishonesty. It is unbelievable to me that Quest would just walk away from their own error.
ORIGINAL REVIEW: I had blood drawn at the Quest Diagnostics center in Longmont, Colorado. All seemed to go well with the blood draw and my appointment was on time. Two weeks later many of my results are still pending. When I e-mail the only answer I can get is "results pending." I called the 800 number and was treated with extreme rudeness. I was lied about the nature of the tests being done, and instead of trying to find out why I was not getting the results, I was given the royal run around and told Quest would send me a copy of the doctor's order, which I already had. Anything to get me off the phone.
My doctor is furious that I did not have the lab work done at the local hospital. Again, I had no problem with the tech who drew the blood or the local facility. Getting results, however, is a nightmare, and trying to find out what is going on with missing results is a battle with rude and incompetent personal. Quest had no problem charging my insurance. I will not be using Quest again.

On November 12th, 2021, I took my son to a local Quest Diagnostics for a blood draw. Thinking that QD workers know what they’re doing, but I had no idea at the time, that the individual taking our info did not know what they were doing and mixed my insurance info up with his: The result being months of frustration and loss of my time. At first, I received a 4 figure QD bill in March which I thought was odd, since it was almost 5 months later. I called to see what the issue was, and was told that the BCBS claim was denied because my son’s info did not match their records. I explained that the person recording the info at the local QD location did seemed to be confused about my son’s birth date.
The rep at QD said that they would update the claim and it would get resubmitted go through – Four months later I received the same bill again much to my dismay, and once again contacted them to see if the issue could be resolved. This time, the QD rep told me that they had resubmitted the claim in March, but it was denied again, and it looked like the wrong info was once again submitted. So I gave the QD rep the info again, and same response – "We’ll get this taken care of for you." Liar. August 5th, 2022 – I just got a notice from a debt collector representing Quest Diagnostics. After the last QD contact, I had searched for negative reviews about QD. I was stunned at finding thousands of complaints on the BBB site and hundreds of more elsewhere.
Scrolling through the complaints, I immediately found many complaints like mine. Today, August 8th, 2022, I called BCBS for some updates on the claims that they were receiving from QD. I was told that there were NO submissions from Quest Diagnostics past last year – so basically QD did not even attempt to resubmit a claim, they just lied to me, which is more than negligent, malicious. I called QD an hour ago and once again, they took my update information again and told me that they would resubmit and it would be taken care of. Never happened. Now it's mid-September. 2022 and I am filing a lawsuit.

I went to a Quest in NJ for labs August 2021 and 2 of the services were double billed. Medicare paid the first bill in 2021 shortly after the lab draw. Then 6 months later, Quest resubmitted the bill which of course was rejected by Medicare, so Quest billed me personally. I went back to the same Lab in NJ this August 2022 and was told I had a balance of over $250 that had to be paid or I couldn't have my labs done. Calling the billing company many times, I was told there is nothing they can do. I asked for a supervisor several times and the calls were disconnected. I have reported this fraud to Medicare. Medicare agrees that the bill was submitted twice and that the patient is not responsible for paying for these labs.
Upon further delving into this, I find that Quest settled a class action lawsuit for $1.8 Million dollars for overbilling and double billing unaware patients. The whistleblower worked at Quest and saw this happen consistently. It seems that it makes no difference, because they are still at it. There is no way to fight it without an expensive lawsuit and they refuse to give you services if you have a balance bill. They make you sign an ABN saying you will pay what Medicare doesn't cover but there is nothing that says you agree to paying a duplicate service. There is no way of knowing this in advance. I hope this information helps someone else because "the little guy" is being duped into paying for labs that they are not required to and this is clearly fraud to the patient and to Medicare. This is just an example of why the price of healthcare is so high. The big companies just don't care!

Wasn't able to make an appointment online, so I arrived at around 8:40 am at the quest location on 2229 west Ball rd., Anaheim Ca. When I was checking in one of the employee asked me if I had an appointment, I said no, She told me it's going to be a long wait as priority is given to the ones with appointment, She actually helped me check in as a walk-in and told me to take a seat, As hours ticked by many people just left, I guess they were familiar with the practice, tired of waiting or went to other locations, when a man who was seating next to me asked me what time my appointment was, I told him I didn't have one because I was a walk -in, He told me he had an appointment for 11:20 and he was also a walk-in but he got an appointment when he was checking in because someone had cancelled their appointment, I was shocked because I had arrived almost 30 mins before him.
Later I asked one of the lady and she said that how the system work, not first come first served as walk-in, really? Who made such a dumb stupid system? Is it a lottery? Whomever is responsible need to find a new job/ career. That silly, don't waste people time, some people wake up in the early hoping to catch an early worm, not to play 5 grader games. At 3:30pm the lady come back and say, "If don't have an appointment you can't be seen," I waited for over six hours for this madness?

I got 2 emails stating my credit card didn't go through. I tried to reply to both (neither said do not reply) and both came back undeliverable. When I go to customer service it asks for a bill number - neither email provide one, asks for lab code - there are no codes in the drop down for CT. I went to the site and looked under my billing, pay bills and anything else I could find and there is no site to update credit card information. They charged me $10. Really unacceptable customer service when I'm trying to pay a bill.

I went to Quest Diagnostic on 3rd Street Jacksonville, Fl for the 2nd time today Saturday August 20, 2022, to have a major lab test done as the first time a week ago I was sent away because I did not have a mask (you’d think they’d have a mask). The tech was rude throwing his sticky notes while complaining “I don’t know why don’t they just give you a paper instead of faxing it.” That’s after he told me there was no order. After he finds the order, he pulls up a bill. I was unaware it existed, never got billed for, but it had apparently gone to collections. Obviously, he refused my getting tested and now I have to wait yet again as it is the weekend.

I had written a negative review last year and received over 100 viewers, and the visit after that review saw some positive changes, but yet again my last visit for a blood test requested by my doctor on a Friday for an appointment on Wednesday, so my walk in visit which I have done all the time in the past 25 years, on a Monday morning fasted, so I sign in and after an hour wait, I come to find out that should have made an appointment and that they will take me in order which they have received with the rest of the walk-in and after all the people who had appointments, which could take all day or never.
I leave and come home and make an appointment for the next day, and as I go in the next day I had to wait more than an hour to get my test done which only took 10 minutes! Great. Please allow me to mention there were no staff on the front desk, even though the nurses inside working hard around the clock properly and I personally salute them, yet first there were more patients than employees, second every nurse was processing the paperwork and doing the testings themselves.
My advice to you is :- Patients are there because they are not well, most of them fasting, waiting on these uncomfortable chairs and some of them waiting outside the office by the security guard request, so you tell me does this sound like a place where sick people should endure? Or Are we becoming like poor countries where people don’t have much choice? Let me mention that we as patients are paying for the service, yet we are treated as we are getting a free service, being ordered for where we should wait, no masks given to patients who forget to bring mask, How much a box of mask cost every day? It is just ridiculous and sad for a medical facility not to offer emergency masks when most already came with it, not only it wasn’t offered but one of the staff members was extremely rude to the patient for forgetting it. I know we are better than this, make it happen if you can.

The issue is related to billing with a service date of Jan 14 2022, the 'processing' for which has been extending beyond belief (with Quest's continued inefficiency in directing/routing the bill to the correct address of the Insurance company) ... Thereby edging towards messing the customer's (that’s me) credit history (for no fault of mine) ... Innumerous email communications and numerous phone calls to Quest (directly and/or through my Medical Insurance company, on three-way conference calls) appear to (continue to fall/have fallen) in deaf ears ...
I was surprised by the first ‘Laboratory bill’ from Quest dated April 28 2022 informing me of a ‘huge’ amount due (marked as ’31-60 days’ past due), which had not yet been processed through the Insurance company (since Quest had sent the documentation/service records to the INCORRECT ADDRESS). Soon after receipt of the said bill, I reached out to the Insurance company, informing them about the same, who reached out to Quest and communicated to Quest the correct address to which the documentation/service records need to be sent. Quest had also confirmed to the Insurance company that while the said bill is being processed, it would be placed on ‘Hold’ (implying would not be considered as ‘past due’ yet, thus not having to be passed on for ‘Collections’).
However, as of today (June 23 2022), Quest has continued to fail to submit the said documentation to the correct address of the Insurance company. However, Quest has continued to send me their bills (marked as ’61-90 days’ past due … ’Over 90 days’ past due … ‘Final notice’ ….), despite their own continued mess up over months (blatant display of absolute inefficiency!) despite having informed the Insurance company/me of the said bill being placed on ‘Hold’! And, based on the 'final notice', Quest Diagnostics would pass this bill for 'Collections' (in not paid by me in 10 days) ... ALL OF THIS FOR A MESS UP CAUSED BY QUEST DIAGNOSTIC'S OWN CONTINUED FAILURES!!!
Since early May 2022, I have been reaching out to Quest either directly over phone/email or through my Insurance company over a three-way conference call with Quest diagnostics/My Insurance company and myself were participants. Every communication from Quest repeat (at least) a 30-45 day time frame for processing … shows their incredibly, slow processing/performance. Here is an extract of my email communication to Quest Diagnostics dated June 17 2022:
**** (Names have been masked for privacy)
It continues to be a very unpleasant experience having to deal with you guys at Quest!!! On receiving the 'new' bill from you guys (effective with no change to the bill for the service date of 01/14/2022), it suggests if ANYONE AT QUEST EVER DOES A JOB RIGHT!!! I spoke to Quest CSR, **, today, who informed me that the Insurance company denied the claim for the service date of 01/14/2022 because the service was NOT in the coverage period! (ABSOLUTE NONSENSE). Immediately reached out to the Insurance company and spoke to CSR, **, who conferenced the call with Quest CSR, ** ... When I gathered that the bill was continuously being sent BY QUEST TO THE INCORRECT ADDRESS OF THE INSURANCE COMPANY!!!
All of this since the service date (of 01/14/2022) and several calls/communications to quest & insurance company, ever since I received the first bill from Quest in early May 2022 (when insurance company had asked Quest to resubmit the bill to the correct address) ... Multiple time ... See your records if you ever maintain any ... And today to gather that Quest did it again (sent to wrong insurance company address)!!!! What a waste of services/personnel/'so called' services (that is non-existent) ..
Is it very difficult for you to see/refer/verify that, when the processing of the bill for a later service date of 04/22/2022 appears to have been sent/processed to the correct insurance address (substantiated by the EOB received from the insurance company), and why the billing for the service dated 01/14/2022 continues to be sent to the incorrect address??? Sounds like there is a need for a lot of you to have your vision checked!!!!! Absolute nightmare!!!
****Needless to say, it proves the need for Quest's management to look into the inefficiencies of their bill processing and avoid future inconveniences to anyone else.

Blue Cross has been called over the situation and they have explained the process several times to Quest people and told me it is taken care of.

Well, due date comes back around, and the SAME THING HAPPENS AGAIN. When I called again, I got the run around, so asked for a supervisor. She came back and said they would stop the next pending payment and cancel the payment plan altogether, and that they are still investigating where that extra (2nd payment) of 60$ went.

Quest Diagnostics forced me to give a credit card number to get tests that my Dr. ordered. Forced me to sign a paper giving them the right to charge my bank or no test would be done. I had to sign to get the tests but wasn't really concerned because I have Medicare & Medicaid that covers lab. These tests took place Dec 8, 2021 and I just got an invoice charging me $426! Why?? Because Quest sent a bill that was CODED WRONG & Medicare declined it. Rather than contacting me when they had copies of my insurance cards to discuss why these charges that have ALWAYS been covered each & every time I've been to Quest with the SAME TESTS ordered, they just took it out of my bank account.

Not only that but they plan to get $339 more when my Social Security check hits next month. Whatever you do, do NOT let this ** [not allowed to say] force you to give your bank info unless you know the correct treatment codes so you can make certain they don't bill the wrong codes to your insurance. I'm not convinced that they deliberately bill the wrong codes because it's easier & faster for Quest to just take the money from your bank account, but that's just my opinion.

How can they set me up on a payment plan for a balance that is not owed? Also, my payment information was NOT saved when I made either of the previous payments, so they are obviously saving card information even when you ask them not to.

It's a shame that we are required to give 1 star because this Arena Blvd in Sacramento location does not even deserve that. I had an 8:10 am appointment but was 16 minutes late because I got lost. The kiosk would not let me check in because I was beyond 10 minutes late. Of course, I never imagined that this would be an issue. I told the lady at the front desk with the short red hair that I could not check in because I was 10 minutes late, and she rudely told me that I was too late and had to reschedule. I explained to her that I really needed to get this blood work done before I started light therapy today. She told me that they do not take walk-ins. She told me to write my birthday and last name down, and she would check into things.
A couple of minutes later, while she was back at her desk typing away, I noticed that my information was still just sitting on the counter (out of arms reach). I asked her if had the information she needed, and she rudely responded, "Yes, but I only have one computer monitor." I wasn't trying to rush her; I just wanted to make sure that she had what she needed. I didn't want to just leave my birthday and last name information sitting on the counter for the next patient to see. Finally, she grabbed my information off the counter and, after a few minutes, said that she would be able to put me in walk-in so that I could be squeezed in between any no-shows. She told me that it can take hours for me to be seen and instruct the assistant on the floor to help me sign in to the kiosk.
In the meantime I am standing in a crowded waiting room that only had 5 chairs with about 15 people they have been waiting for quite some time (despite of appointments) to get blood drawn by one of the 4 phlebotomist in the back. After waiting for about 40 minutes, a lady was called but was not there; however, I was not called/ squeezed in as promised. I waited another hour and named after the name was called, but mine was not. I finally got up and asked the floor attendant how long it would be about before I was called? He said that I would be called after the appointment or seen. I said, "But everyone here has an appointment, so that doesn't make sense." That means I would be seeing at the end of the day, and it is now 9:40 a.m. in the morning.
It was at that point that the rude lady with a short red hair abruptly interrupted our conversation and stated that I was only a standby because I was at my appointment and that I could be waiting there for hours and she does not know when I will ever be able to be seen even though I was the only stand by there. While waiting there, I had already booked an appointment at the downtown location that would be coming up in about 40 minutes. After she said that, I just told her to take me off and walked out. I arrived downtown, and my experience was like a breath of fresh air. I was treated with dignity and respect. When I arrived at the downtown location, even though my appointment wasn't until 10:40 and I arrived at 10, I was taken in and done by 10:15.
If you like being talk to very rudely, waiting for a long time to be seen even if you have an appointment, and standing up while waiting to be called, then this is the location for you. I can only compare the Arena location to maybe a County Medical Center or welfare office situation compared to an actual organized and functionally running laboratory. The receptionist with the short red hair is extremely rude, belligerent, belittling, and loud. She totally lacks people skills, and I don't understand how she still has a job. I witnessed her being rude patient after the patient, which prompted me to look at the reviews for this location. I knew that it wasn't just my experience that day. If you read the reviews on here, you will see that her and her rudeness is mentioned several times. I felt like I was being treated like a second-class citizen in there begging for a handout.

First of all, I never thought that I will write a bad review to Quest Diagnostics personnel, knowing that some people know the job and some don't assume that there is more good than bad people. When I come for the blood work, (in any facility), I always mention that my veins are very tiny and that I am on **, which means they should know not to use a regular needle. But, when I went on 02 February 2022 to Quest Diagnostics in Bradenton FL it happens that two female phlebotomists don't pay attention to what I am talking to them, (one is Maria), they even lie to me that they don't have small butterfly needles, and when I ask them why is that they told me that they are not supplied. Both of them try to but weren't able to do the work, I mean one after another one. Both fishing in my arms for the veins; when I told them that I don't like it they start to look for my fist to draw out the blood.
So, I asked for the manager and the second one said that she is the manager; I was so upset knowing that they lie but I can't do anything. She pulled the needle out (the second one), doesn't apply the bandaid to my arm, and let me go laughing at me. I told them that I will give them "a beautiful" review. So I went out and I notice that I don't have the bandaid; I returned inside and spoke to another phlebotomist about it; she was so surprised that some of her colleagues let me out without the bandaid and she suggested coming another day to do the blood work by Judy. Today, on 08 February I went so happy to see Judy, hoping that she will do the work, but she was the same as the other two, only I got the bandaid; I should mention that she also doesn't care about the small needle. I am so sorry for us who need to deal with this kind of people. I would give 0 stars if I am able. Just don't go there if you have tiny veins.

This lab is the most unorganized and unprofessional business ever! They didn’t receive the order. Had to call the doctor. I had to provide the doctor's name and number. Then when I was given the stool sample they only gave me a container. No kit or anything. When I brought the stool sample back I made sure she matched up with my paperwork but 11 days later there was no record of that the sample was ever delivered. When going back to see what happened they were not apologetic and pretty much just totally incompetent. I do not recommend this business.

The technologist at Quest incorrectly entered my birth date into the Quest computer system. She did not verify with me if she entered the correct date, as would be standard laboratory procedure. Because of this error, I was unable to view my lab results through the MyQuest website. I spent over a week on the phone with Quest and corresponded with them through multiple emails to inform them of their mistake. They remained unable to correct the error, although promising to do so. The responses I received through their email support system were non-sensical and revealed they had made no effort to even read the emails I sent them. They also refused to put me in contact with a supervisor or medical director who could resolve the problem. So two weeks after the blood draw, I am still unable to view my results in MyQuest.

Quest labs are clean and the lab staff has always been friendly, but when it comes to billing it turns to real nightmare! I repeatedly get overcharged and solving it is nearly impossible! Quest sends 3 invoices (instead of one) from my visit, my health insurance (Health Plan of Nevada) applies my minimum copay to EACH invoice and even thought my copay should be "per visit" it ends up being per invoice resulting in a total 3 times higher. I call my health insurance and they say they will reprocess the invoices but it might take up to a month. So I try to contact Quest billing to update that but their website is working only 50% of time (their new billing website) and so I tried phone. After getting through to a billing representative - after 2 hours on the phone - the lady said she cannot do anything for me and will reconnect me to someone else ...

Ended up with a surprise bill. It was literally “impossible” to inquire about prices before, during, or after having the bloodwork for I was unable to talk to a human being on the phone. Quest Lab is an In-Network Lab but I was charged more than if I had gone to another lab without insurance at all! Talking to someone at Quest was literally IMPOSSIBLE, you’ll have to deal with Interactive Voice System with no chance to talk to a human. I’m refusing to pay out of principle.
The details: On April 6, 2021, my primary care Doctor requested a bloodwork. I did my due diligence of choosing an in-network lab. I even went to Quest Lab one day before to ask directly if I would have to pay anything for my bloodwork. A nurse briefly came out and confirmed I wouldn’t have to pay anything (she probably just wanted me to leave quickly). Despite all those precautions, I ended up receiving a surprise bill for the amount of $227.22 for the Assay of Homocystine.

Hiring truck drivers is a difficult task these days. There is the long applications, background checks, interviews, physicals, driving tests, drug tests, employment verification, plus a lot of persuasion. It used to take three days to get the results for a pre-employment drug test, now it takes two weeks or more. It now takes three days for the specimen to get to the lab. Unfortunately, no driver is going to patiently wait two weeks to earn income to support their families. Therefore, all the time and money you invested in hiring the driver is lost when the driver takes a job at a different company, because Quest Diagnostics cannot process a drug test in a reasonable amount of time. Quest is non-responsive, unsympathetic, and basically does not care, because whether you get your test results or not, they will get paid for doing inefficient work and destroying your business.

I am out of the time spent interviewing drivers, running background checks, and employment verifications and the money spent to prepare the driver for the position, cost of drug tests, and physicals. Not to mention the stress created inside the company due to driver shortage, tempers flaring due to late delivered freight because of driver shortage, and the final stress factor is waiting for drug test results with a boss breathing down the back of your neck expecting the human resource personnel to miraculously make the drug test results to appear.

I informed the staff member that they were allowing other patients to be in the lobby (and by extension in the rooms where the tests are being done) without masks and due to my personal health conditions it was not safe for me to be in the facility while there was an unmasked person.
Instead of telling the other person to put on a mask I was instructed to sit further away. I said I could not sit there and would need someone to come out and get me or call me when they were actually ready to take me. This did not happen. After 20 minutes I sent my husband back in to see how much longer it would be and was told they were now ready for me.

For the next three weeks, my arm hurt when I moved, with both numbness and tingling.
The second time was in August 2021 (five days ago). I needed routine blood work and went to a different location, one located in Roslyn, NY. Unbelievably, the phlebotomist here had NO CLUE what they were doing. And once again, I had pain when they took blood from me. My arm was sore when I left and there is still a bruise. When I move my arm a certain way, I have an achy feeling-the same feeling when you pull a muscle-that extends throughout my arm. Once again, for the second straight time in a row and within an eight month timespan, Quest Diagnostics messed up the blood draw. Again, I've gotten probably hundreds of blood work with no issues. But from Quest, there is always an issue. I will never go back.

Needed test to enter Aruba, who lists Wal-Mart and Quest Diagnostics as source for PCR test. Took the test within the 72 hour window and did not receive the test results in time. Called and sent several Result Requests and never was contacted. I had to get another test while in Miami awaiting my flight because Quest Diagnostics failed. Additionally, I signed up on their MyQuest site and still do not see the results. Do not use this company if you need the results to enter the country within 72 hours of arrival, it will be a waste of money and time as Quest Diagnostics will fail you and you will end up spending more money to get another test.

Quest has a customer be damned attitude. My doctor sent them a prescription for lab work on a Thursday and when I arrived at the local Quest facility the following Tuesday they said they didn't have it. I'd brought a copy of the prescription with me just in case, but the phlebotomist, who said she was the unit supervisor, said she couldn't draw blood because, the doctor who wrote the prescription hadn't provided her address. I asked why the address was necessary and was told that they didn't know where to send the test results without it. I said how about sending them to me. They said they couldn't do that.
I said I could give them the doctor's address but they said the doctor had to provide it. I asked them to check for the script the doctor had sent them and they did and found it, but it also didn't have the doctor's address. I didn't think to ask them to draw blood and check later, but they undoubtedly would have refused as their attitude was basically "we can't help you" rather than "what might we do to help". When I called Quest customer service to complain and noted that the local facility had my script for 5 days and had done nothing to check it, they said "Oh, we don't check the scripts till the patient is there." From now on I'll use LabCorp. I hope they're better.

Had several experiences already when the lab is holding the specimen for 1-2 weeks in order to release the results. This is ridiculous since we are not able to find enough arguments for our prospective employees of why their hiring process has been stagnated and they decide to move on. It takes the whole process to bring competitive employees to our team and once found we cannot just lose them because of Quest lab incapability to provide service we pay for on time.

I tried scheduling a employer-requested drug test. Many sites had wait time of 2 or more weeks. Tried speaking to a human on the phone. Called several times, recorded messages stated long wait times. Apparently, they do not have enough staff to handle their commitment to test for employers. Called several locations. Found a few locations that handle walk-ins. Called them. Called one, they said there is a 3 hour wait in the parking lo t before you will be allowed inside. How nice to have everyone waiting in 95 + degree heat in your car before being allowed in. July in SW FL is usually 95-105, high humidity. How healthy of them!
Called another, they said to come down as it was first come first serve, come down and wait in the parking lot for your number to come up and they will call you on your cell. Went there, a little bit of a drive. When I got there they said they were no longer doing drug tests as they were swamped with other tests. What a circus run by clowns! Quest seems to be more concerned with running lean to keep profits up. Every location I spoke to said they were understaffed. Why pay to have enough employees? Their philosophy is: Let the customers suffer with third-world service.

Literally the worst experience I could imagine trying to get basic pre-drug test answers. All I wanted was to speak to a representative, or see some kind of list of supplements and medications I should be concerned about that have the potential to give 'false positives' as the job I'm applying for is very important to me. After probably 30 minutes of being jerked around by an automated system, I finally got a customer service rep who, when I asked the above inquiry said, "No. Sorry. Ask your doctor."
This place honestly sucks, but they probably have a monopoly. Don't use them if you don't have to, I've had other experiences with them in the past including them sending me a 400 dollar bill after my doctor ran tests that told me wouldn't cost me anything additional. Total garbage company from my 2 experiences so far and I literally don't ever leave bad reviews. I'm not just some guy that's always angry, I go out of my way to leave good reviews for people/businesses that are even half-way decent. This place is terrible, I'm sure they have kind/competent individual people within the company, but as a whole, they deserve to go out of business.

All I wanted was a COVID test and they sent me from one location to one 40 minutes away because "they take your kind of insurance." When I got there, they told me they don't. I had to spend 15 minutes on the phone with the corporate office for the people to realize they've screwed me. When the should-be 15-minute process turned 3-hour process was over, I waited 3 days and then followed the instructions on how to get my results. After 2 more days and several hours dealing with rude customer service, I STILL can't get my results from their broken website and the employees just act clueless.

I've been with the Quest Diagnostics for several years and every time when I have a lab visit, I was hunted with different issues. First is the technical issue: I was trying to retrieve the test result through the online portal, but the system keeps locking me off. After I tried to reset my password, I never received an Email to reset it. Trying to contact the customer service, but never went through. Second issue is the billing they use the wrong medical code to submit the claim to the insurance company, and obviously my insurance company denied this claim because of the medical code error made from quest and I've been following up with them for six months now and they never answered my call or returned my Email. So disappointed with their services and I will soon be switching to another lab test provider. Just a warning to others! Keep away from quest diagnostics.

First, Quest's online appointment scheduling does not work. It doesn't matter which office, what date or what you select from the "available appointments" section, it will tell you the time is no longer available. Then you have to select another option, fill out the form again, only to get the same result. They don't publish their phone number, but you can find it by searching online. When you call, they do not allow an option to speak to anyone, and if you choose the appointments option, there is a long silence and then disconnected. I even tried for appointments that are 6 months out, only to get this same result.

The earliest scheduled appointment I could make was for next Monday, Mar 1. I did that, unhappy with the week-long delay. My doctor wanted this blood test done "urgently". So yesterday afternoon, Feb 23, I arrived at 2:05pm and signed in for a walk-in appointment. The computer predicted a 38 minute wait. I waited outside. At 2:55, a technician assured me I would be taken in. At 3:00pm, another technician announced to me and another individual that the the office was "closed". Not closing, but "closed. I was told to go home. No one would take my blood test. They were going home or on to "other jobs".
This was shocking. The computer could have accurately predicted I would not be accommodated in the time available. Instead, it encouraged me to wait. Now, even polling stations allow those in line to vote past the cut-off hour. Quest should have done the same. It didn't. So, I showed up this morning, Feb 24, at 6:10am, for what became a long 90-minute wait in my car before having my blood taken. This is unacceptable! Quest needs to extend its hours, or hire more people, or both. And improve its processes. But treating patients like this shameful.

My experience with Quest was awful. I went to get routine blood testing and gave them my insurance and information, as generally done. They apparently took my insurance number incorrectly and spelled my name wrong. Therefore, I was later contacted by debt collectors - and my credit rating marked - saying that I did not pay my bill. I paid the bill (almost $400) to get it sorted. I then contacted my health insurance, as well as Quest Diagnostics, probably around 10 times back and forth to sort out the issue. In the end, Quest did not work with my health insurance and would not return my money to me, even though I was privately insured at the time. Almost $400 is a lot of money to lose and be told “sorry, no can do”. In a situation where I had done everything I was meant to do, I am appalled that the company would not right the wrong they had done. Would NEVER use them again. Save yourself the stress and money and go to a different lab.
