Patient FAQs

Who is MicroPath Laboratories?

Physician-owned and founded over 48 years ago, MicroPath Laboratories is anĀ independent diagnostic and consultative anatomic pathology laboratory located in Central Florida and staffed by board certified pathologists with multiple areas of sub-specialty expertise.

What services does MicroPath Laboratories provide?

MicroPath Laboratories provide anatomic pathology testing to physicians, hospital laboratories, endoscopy centers, ambulatory surgery centers, multi-specialty clinics, and national clinical laboratories.

What is a pathologist?

A pathologist is a doctor who specializes in medical diagnosis and who interprets and diagnoses the changes caused by disease in tissues and body fluids.

What is a frozen section?

A frozen section occurs when the pathologist freezes and microscopically examines a tissue specimen provided during a surgical procedure. This allows for an immediate diagnosis that aids in the surgical management in real-time.

What do pathologists have to do with tests done on my blood or urine?

Pathologists perform professional services as well as technical services. The variety of billing arrangements for pathologists’ services includes professional component billing. While the hospital might bill the patient for the pathologist’s technical services, the pathologist can bill the patient, the patient’s insurer, or the hospital directly for professional services.

Why have I received a bill from MicroPath Laboratories?

Your physician has chosen MicroPath Laboratories to diagnose and interpret the specimen collected on the day of your surgery or office visit. Our laboratory billing company will bill the listed insurance provider.
