Whether a test for myasthenia gravis will be covered by health insurance will depend on a person’s individual healthcare plan. Patients should speak with their insurance provider to understand the type of coverage they have. The National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD) has a patient assistance program for people with myasthenia gravis living in the U.S.; its goal is to offer financial support to people facing limited resources to pay for specific healthcare costs, including physician-prescribed laboratory and diagnostic tests.
