Beware. If they give you a flat rate for the service you ll be charged if your insurance denies the claim, they lie. My insurance denied, so they appealed and fought them over it for a year. So I instead of my paying $199 I m stuck with over 500. Just beware!!
I filled out the paperwork and check marked "bill patient." Company bi-passed and went to insurance. I spoke with representative while the billing was processing asking them to not bill my insurance. representative told me to call my insurance to have them decline. I called the insurance and they s...
My wife and I paid for this so we could get the gender early and also to find out about any chromosomal abnormalities, and all the other stuff that goes with it. We got no answer and was told if we wanted to get the answers, we would have to pay for another test. This is, of course, after arguing wi...
Do not take the Harmony test... I feel I was scammed into taking it. When I called I was told the average cost was $300. She asked for my insurance and I was put on hold. She then came back and said it was out of network and wouldn t be covered by insurance. She said they would bill me and I could s...
BEWARE! Do not get the Harmony test done unless your insurance fully covers, and if that s the case, go with another company! We were billed self-Pay, which, according to our doctor, costs $130. Plenty of research on the internet suggests SOME self pay customers are getting it at that price. We rece...
My doctor sent blood samples here and then months later received huge charges that insurance doesn't even cover. Scam. Do not do any tests for the harmony test just do stage 2 ultra sound.
Was offered $299 for the procedure at the physician's office before insurance. After insurance it was $3490 with a $2795 write off leaving me with a balance of $695 which is higher than the going rate without any insurance at all.
They overcharged my wife and I. The initial charge was $130 without insurance. At no point did Ariosa Diagnostics tell me if I filed with my insurance the cost may be more. After filling with insurance the cost was over $400! Keep in mind, Ariosa Diagnostics received absolutely nothing from my insur...
There seems to be a tie up with some doctors who go out of their way to recommend this Harmony test costing over 3500, with no real results given out to us or to insurance company. There are other tests fully covered by insurance costing a lot less. Apparently some doctors need to be investigated fo...
Clearly they have been at this a while as they deliberately use misleading statements to make you think you are paying a certain price, but they end up using your insurance and overbilling dramatically.
Don't bother with the Harmony. Make sure your doctor is aware that you don't want to take the Harmony. Some doctors have an agreement with Ariosa to promote the test. Be aware - opt for another test if you even bother with genetic testing at all. Not worth $299 to find out the gender early.
