They should not be able to charge you a fee unless you had a prior agreement with them. I'll bet it's right there on the job application you signed. Many companies will require the applicant to pay for the test and reimburse him if he passes.

Is your employer allowed to bill your health insurance for their mandatory drug test?

Yes, they can. Under federal law, an employer can require you to pay for the mandatory drug test. As long as having the employee pay does not have the effect of discouraging minority job applicants or lowering the employee's wage below the federal minimum, the employer can charge you for the test. Billing your health insurance is a form of billing you, even if your health insurance is from your employer.
