Direct Access Lab Testing For the Uninsured

Direct Access Testing is now a real thing in America and a fabulous advancement in the ability of the patient to take control of their wellness plan.

If your doctor’s waiting room is overcrowded and you have to wait too long for a simple check-up, why not take some measures to help determine your level of health between office visits.

Millions of people visit physicians and hospitals each year for wellness check-ups as well as for help with various health concerns. Most doctors will order blood work to help them determine any possible imbalances or pertinent disease markers and risk analysis. The blood work-up fees are often extremely high due to the involvement of insurance companies and their rates. Sadly, physician offices and hospital overhead plays a role in the cost of these laboratory tests. Doctors certainly have to pay their assistants and support staff, the rent, and utilities and huge malpractice insurance rates, to name a few operational costs. Because of these high overheads they most often pass along a margin of profit that includes all of their daily expenses by percentages.

Due to rising insurance rates and co-pay programs, many patients are paying higher fees out of pocket. These higher fees often keep patients from visiting their doctor’s offices as often as they might like. Because of the fact that less people are regularly seeing their family doctors, more people inadvertently are developing conditions that go undiagnosed. Blood tests are showing that if a person had come in months earlier a disease state may have been prevented. There are now alternative ways for the average person with or without insurance to find out their personal level of health.

Some patients wait two hours for a ten minute office visit, only to hear, we will draw some blood and see what the lab has to say. We take the wait out. You decide when you want to stop in and have your blood drawn and results can be immediate, with enough information to help the you understand the results.

If you wish to have a common CBC panel, or some other type of tests to help determine if you are suffering from diabetes, anemia, allergies, a hormone imbalance, ulcers, infection, stress, prostate concerns, mononucleosis, cardiac panel, nutritional deficiencies, thyroid disease, how your liver, gallbladder, digestion are, or if you are a candidate for cancer, HIV, Hepatitis, or other diseases, you can visit one of our convenient labs to schedule a simple blood draw. If you just want a Wellness Analysis you can have that too.

Some tests are available as Home Tests and can be done in the comfort of your own home quickly and easily. You have the choice to involve your family medical doctor or to ask questions of the medical doctors who work at the laboratories. They will gladly explain the findings and encourage you to seek medical assistance if necessary.

Another Interesting Point To Consider:

Online lab tests do not have to become part of your permanent medical record like physician-ordered tests, which follow you when you apply for a new job, seek to obtain employee health benefits, or shop for life insurance.
