Live Oak Medicine draws routine labs in the office. Burnet County has no national lab draw stations. By contrast, draw stations such as those for Clinical Pathology Laboratory, LabCorp and Quest are common in Austin.
It is our preference for patients to have labs drawn during a visit at Live Oak Medicine. This gives the physician an opportunity to review current medications and previous labs, to tell the patient personally which labs will be drawn and to plan follow up. These visits are brief, and directed toward drawing the appropriate lab panel. The physician meets with the patient, a co-pay is collected, and an office visit is billed.
Your insurer likely has strong feeling about where you have blood drawn. Insurers usually have strong feelings about where blood is sent for processing even when drawn in the office. Know your lab benefits. Live Oak Medicine can send labs to CPL, LabCorp and Quest.
The American Medical Association helps doctors help patients by uniting physicians nationwide to work on the most important professional and public health issues.
