Low Cost Lab Testing Services for Members

Laboratory testing is not a treatment but a tool to aid in the detection of illness and disease. Your test results should show a range for normal readings. It is possible that results outside of the normal range may indicate a false positive or may be normal for you. If your results do fall outside of the normal range it is important that you consult with your doctor. It is also a good idea to share your results with your doctor even if they are in the normal range.

Full Lipid Panel or Total Cholesterol, LDL, HDL, Triglycerides

Offers insight into heart disease related risk. Good to know for all ages especially for those eating a "normal" American diet. May be irrelevant for vegetarians/vegans eating primarily unprocessed foods and normal weight children eating healthy.

HbA1c (also known as A1c and Hemoglobin A1c)
