A few notes on the numbers:

Is a bundled panel cheaper?

Sometimes. Walk-In Lab’s “GLP-1 Basic Blood Test Panel” was $165 plus a $6 physician fee. Its product page lists a CMP, CBC, lipid panel, A1c, TSH, and insulin (Walk-In Lab). That is about the same as buying the five tests separately at Walk-In Lab, with an insulin test added.

Before buying a bundle, compare its test list with what the prescriber asked for. A bundle can include tests nobody requested or leave out one that was.

What fees should I watch for?

Physician order fee. Buying a lab test online still needs an order from a licensed physician. The company’s physician network provides it. Some companies list this as a separate charge:

Fees at the lab. Walk-In Lab says all fees are included when you order and nothing more is due at the lab. It notes draw fees may apply to at-home kits that need a separate blood draw (Walk-In Lab FAQ).

Cancellation and expiration fees.

What does the price include?

With the online providers above, the price generally covers the physician’s lab order (the requisition you bring to the lab), the blood draw at a patient service center, the lab analysis, and online access to results. Check each company’s page for details.

Can I use insurance, an HSA, or an FSA?

HealthLabs.com says it does not accept insurance (HealthLabs.com FAQ). Walk-In Lab can provide a receipt to file with your insurer but does not guarantee reimbursement (Walk-In Lab FAQ). Quest’s product pages say HSA and FSA cards are accepted. Whether a test is eligible for your HSA or FSA depends on your plan.
