When I log onto my insurance portal, I see similar amounts for same day health, but I've never gotten a bill from them, so I ignore it.

Has anyone seen this from Same day testing (signal diagnostics, also says non participating provider) before? Are they seriously charging $445 for one pcr, Drive thru test? This was my fourth time testing with them and I’ve never seen this before.

The covid cash grab is everywhere. Wake-up, people.

DP here. I always say we have symptoms too because I'm always worried they won't pay if I don't.


No. Sameday guarantees free testing with insurance, no matter what.

72 hour insurance option. I did rebook so they had my stuff on file. This was a test I did on 12/21


Then you can ignore it. Legally, you don't have to pay a thing.

Legally you are supposed to forward that check to sameday. It’s insurance fraud to keep the money.

They always bill my insurance for $450 but my insurance only pays them $150 per test. They never bill me the balance, and aren’t allowed to. When you agree to sameday terms, you do agree to forwarding them any checks your insurance sends you for your test.
