You don't even need a doctor to order a lab test. I was ordering my own labs online for 20 years (until I got on Medicare) once I figured out that the health insurer was screwing me. And the funny thing is that I went to the same place the doctor's office would have sent me to draw the blood and it was sent to the same lab for analysis, but it was 1/3 the cost to me. It's just nuts.
