Regional Medical Laboratories, Inc. (RML) is an independent clinical laboratory whose roots date back to the 1950’s. Dr. Arthur A. Humphrey, a Pathologist who was associated with the Mayo Clinic, set up a number of hospital laboratories in southwest Michigan and he started RML in a downtown office with one Medical Technologist. The company expanded with the addition of Pathologists, technical and clerical staff. Currently RML’s team includes five Pathologists, 42 Medical Technologists/Technicians and 136 support staff.

RML provides a broad range of laboratory services for physicians, hospitals, health departments, clinics, nursing homes, veterinarians, and occupational medicine facilities. Our service area includes greater Battle Creek, southwest Michigan and northern Indiana. We also are certified to test water for potability.

To accommodate RML’s continuous growth, we opened a state-of-the-art Patient Service Center in February 2009 at our College Street location. This patient service center features private registration and phlebotomy booths, a very comfortable waiting area and convenient parking.

RML offers three methods of billing: direct patient, third party and monthly account. If you wish to have tests billed to your monthly account in addition to patient billing, the test for monthly billing must be submitted on a separate Test Request form.
Our base fees for monthly account billing are determined by cost analysis of the labor and materials involved for each laboratory test. Patient and third party fees are somewhat higher to cover the additional clerical work and materials involved.
