Patient and Billing FAQs

The provider listed is likely one of the pathologists at MAWD Pathology Group. If you have had a biopsy, pap smear, or blood drawn at your doctor’s office, had surgery at an Ambulatory Surgery Center, or were a patient at one of the many hospitals for which we are medical directors and perform anatomic and clinical pathology services, you may be receiving a statement for pathology or cytology services that were performed by a MAWD pathologist. This bill is separate from any charges billed by the ordering provider, hospital, and/or paid at your physician's office. Your bill is for laboratory testing and the work completed by our pathologists, as ordered by your physician. Once MAWD receives your specimen, our pathologists examine it and provide a diagnosis which allows your physician to determine the best plan of care for your health. Again, these services are separate from any other bill you received from other providers. If you have any additional questions, please contact our local Client Service Representatives at (800) 933-6293 between 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CT Monday through Friday.
