DD's uknow peanut test results

[MandCmama]

When I asked my doc about this test last year, she said there currently wasn't a lab that she would trust to do it. Where did all of yours go?

[Jessica]

We went to a lab to have the blood drawn but the samples were fed-exed directly to the uknow people (phadia?)

[Macabre]

Our doctor's office did it. It's quite a large office and they alwaysbtobthe blood draws themselves.

[Mfamom]

they drew blood at the office.  I assume they sent it to uknow

[YouKnowWho]

It's either LabCorp or Quest.  I cannot remember for the life of me which but it is of course, the one my insurance won't associate with.  Grr.

It's on my Christmas wishlist - pay full price to get just a bit of sanity.

Our current allergist (part of a big national group now) has contracted with a certain lab . . . we have to come pick up kit . . . cannot recall where blood draw will be done . . . and then away it goes for testing.

Just need to get bleeping Tricare ("Try and care") to cover for sure.

And we have to make app't with doc's office to do this . . . for each kid.

Am wondering about uKnow and insurance coverage, especially now with Affordable Care Act . . .

I have heard conflicting reports as to Tricare coverage.  Seems to be region dependent, though it should NOT be.

it's quest that does that test, and it is $156 (cash price, at least in this area).  i am having my pediatrician write the script (it is code 91681) and then going to the lab to have it done.
