[Histonet] Lung Tumor Profile Ordering

[Amy Self]

Question about ordering Lung Tumor Profiles;

How are lung tumor profiles being ordered at your facility; at the time the pathologist is diagnosing or are they ordered at a later date by the patient's oncologist?

For those of you that order at time of diagnosing are you getting reimbursed or are the charges being rejected by Medicare and a few other insurance companies that follow Medicare?

Thanks in advance for your help,
