Sherman Abrams Lab
Starting July, 2025, HCP has added a new preferred in-network lab for your outpatient lab testing. Since out-of-network lab services are not covered under our members’ benefit plans, your patient will receive the maximum plan benefit and a lower out-of-pocket expense when using Sherman Abrams Labs.
Convenient Lab Services for Your Practice and Patients
To make lab work as seamless as possible, Sherman Abrams Labs offers two flexible options:
- In-Office Blood Draws: If you draw blood in your office, our team will arrange prompt pick-up and transport of the samples to the lab—no extra steps required.
- Patient Laboratory Visits: You can also refer patients directly to a participating laboratory for sample collection at their convenience at our Brooklyn and Manhattan locations.
At Sherman Abrams Labs, you’ll find:
- 24/7 friendly and professional client service specialist, ready to assist whenever you need to speak to someone
- Over 96% of specimen testing is performed in-house, with an overnight turnaround time, yielding diagnostically reliable and precise results
- Highly experienced Medical Technologists
- An extended STAT menu with results available within 4 hours
- State-of-the-art EMR connectivity to any Electronic Medical Records Systems, with a dedicated in-house IT team to help with the conversion process
- All supplies needed to properly collect samples and specimens, and get them safely to the laboratory
- A multitude of reporting options is available to ensure you get your results the way you want them, whenever you want them

Quest Diagnostics
HealthCare Partners has a preferred in-network laboratory contract with Quest Diagnostics and their affiliate, Ameripath, for outpatient lab testing. It’s important to refer your patients to an in-network laboratory.
Maximum coverage & minimum cost:
Out-of-network lab services are not covered under our members’ benefit plans. When referred to Quest Diagnostics, a member receives the maximum plan benefit and a lower out-of-pocket expense.
Data for our condition management programs
Data from out-of-network testing is not available for our disease management programs. This may result in inaccurate reporting and the possibility of practitioners and/or members being told that a member needs testing when it may have already been completed.

Genetic Testing
All genetic testing services can be obtained through Quest Diagnostics Lab, and require Prior Authorization prior to submission of any specimens for testing. Quest arranges for the transfer of specimens to appropriate reference labs if specifically approved tests cannot be performed directly by Quest.
A request for Prior Authorization can be submitted to HCP in one of two ways:
The preferred and most efficient way to submit a Prior Authorization (PA) request is via the HCP Web-based data interface, EZ-Net.
Login credentials for EZ-Net are required. Learn More about EZ-Net.
- Prior Authorization requests may also be submitted via FAX.
Send a completed Authorization Request form to (888) 746-6433 or (516) 746-6433.
