Should I Pay This?


Recommended Posts

In September of 2013, my employer for whom I had been working for since Aprill 22, 2013, informs me that I needed to be tested for titers for Rubella, Rubeola, varicella Zoster,Hep B surface, and Mumps. I was born prior to 1957 by more than a decade. I have gone back and forth with Quest about a bill for the testing totaling $568.92. Final bill arrived yesterday for that amount after changing "codes" to get it covered. My employer feels that it is my responsibility to pay this bill. I do not think it is mine to pay as it was not requested prior to emplyment. My understanding at the time was that the employer would pay what ever the insurance did not (medicare with supplement). The insurance denied any payment to Quest. I think I will fight the employer over this. What do you think?

Update. Practice has begrudgingly agreed to pay me the full amount for required testing. Thanks for everyone's input. I had owned my own practice in NY for 18 years and always paid for anything like this for my staff. Just wasn't sure how to approach this practice. Thanks.
