Expensive Tests Requiring SMO Approval
The following tests cost more than $100 a test. The costs shown are approximate.
Tests costing over $500 will require CD support and any over $100 will need SMO endorsement and will not be done without a named SMOs recommendation unless part of an agreed protocol.
Many are these tests are genetic tests which are only rarely performed. As noted, the Laboratory Test Schedule includes comprehensive guidelines on genetic testing and emphasizes that clinicians seek advice before requesting tests. The BPAC site also has a useful document summarising the available genetic tests and their role in primary care.
