Partnering with you through the Genomic Access Program (GAP)
To support you even more, Exact Sciences created the GAP—a comprehensive program designed to help you navigate and understand the insurance and billing process for the Oncotype tests. The GAP assists with obtaining prior authorizations, billing insurance, appealing denied claims, and providing flexible payment options when necessary. Please call 888-ONCOTYPE (888-662-6897), option 2, for more information on insurance and for financial assistance questions or download the GAP guide.
What to expect after your doctor orders your genomic test
1Exact Sciences bills your insurance once testing is completed.†
2You will receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from your insurance.
An EOB is not a bill or an invoice.
3In many cases, patients have little to no out-of-pocket costs for the test.*
4If your insurance denies payment, Exact Sciences will pursue appeals on your behalf where appropriate.
You may be asked by Exact Sciences for authorization to pursue an appeal with your insurance company.§
