Yes, because we offer a pre-paid, self-serve online service. Medicare often covers lab testing services, however, if Medicare limits your access to health care and declares that a lab test is not "medically necessary" or that it exceeds an annual limit (is being taken too often), you will want to order your lab tests from anywhere and anytime with Self Health Care Online.
