This test is subject to reflex testing, see Laboratory Reflex Testing Policy, you have the option to decline reflex testing if you believe it is not medically necessary. If HBAG is positive a confirmation will be performed at an additional charge. Syphilis Serology  is also subject to reflex testing. If the  the Treponemal AB is reactive or equivocal a Syphilis Ab (at MML) is performed if that is reactive an RPR.RPR titer or Syphilis TP-PA is performed.

When ordering a custom panel, Medicare requires the clinician confirm each test in the panel is medically necessary for the patient’s treatment. By regulation, annually we will send a physician acknowledgement letter to ordering clinicians requesting a signature attesting to medical necessity review.
