QuestSelect
Voluntary program (formerly known as Lab Card) lets members get lab tests covered at 100%.*
When you use your QuestSelect card at eligible locations, GEHA pays outpatient laboratory testing at 100%. With QuestSelect, you pay nothing — no deductible, no copay, no coinsurance.^
Each non-Medicare Standard and High member* will receive a QuestSelect card following enrollment in the medical plan. However, QuestSelect is an optional program. Members who choose not to use QuestSelect will continue to pay coinsurance for covered outpatient lab work.
QuestSelect covers most outpatient lab work included in your GEHA medical plan, including:
- Blood testing, such as cholesterol testing
- Urinalysis
- Pap smears
- Biopsies
- Cultures, such as throat cultures
QuestSelect does not cover:
- Lab work ordered during hospitalization
- Lab work ordered on an emergency basis
- Fertility testing
- Bone marrow studies
- Spinal fluid tests
- Mammography
- X-rays
- Imaging
- Dental work
- Lab work not covered by the plan
- Other non-laboratory work
*GEHA Standard and High members with Medicare are not eligible for the QuestSelect program and will not receive QuestSelect cards. The Medicare program covers outpatient laboratory testing.
**Physicians willing to collect for QuestSelect in their offices must clearly mark "QuestSelect" on the requisition and continue to call 800.646.7788 to request a QuestSelect pick-up. If a physician does not collect for QuestSelect in his or her office, the GEHA medical plan member may request the test orders from that physician and go to a QuestSelect collection site.
ONLY sites listed on the QuestSelect website are available to collect for QuestSelect. If a site is not listed on that website, that site may not collect for QuestSelect. Collection site information, including locations, hours and any special instructions, is updated daily.
^GEHA supplemental benefits are neither offered nor guaranteed under contract with the FEHB, but are made available to all enrollees and family members who become members of a GEHA medical plan. For information on year-round savings for GEHA dental members, visit Savings for GEHA dental members.
