I once owed $1100 for bloodwork a teledoc ordered. I had a wellness exam and they ordered a bunch of bloodwork which I got done at a major well known national lab. My insurance said the claim is out of network and refused to pay on some of the bloodwork orders.
Although my teledoc was licensed to practice medicine in my home state, my insurance plan stated it is billed for the providers primary state. In that state, my insurance plan is not contracted with the lab that it’s contracted in my state.
