Test Requisitions

Requisitions must be designed to ensure that ordering physicians can choose tests that are medically necessary for their patients.
  • Requisitions should contain reminders about Medicare rules of medical necessity and list the contents of panels and profiles.
  • Requisitions must provide a place for the physician to include ICD-10 diagnosis codes.
  • Physicians should be encouraged to use only the requisitions supplied by the laboratory to order tests.
