LOWEST COST BLOOD TESTS
Blood tests at Medicare prices are available through this website. We know of no lower-priced alternative for the cash paying patient. The labs are drawn at one of three Summit county LabCorp sites. LabCorp is a national lab with 1,600 sites. Anyone near a LabCorp location nationwide is encouraged to use this website to obtain the same low-cost blood tests. On the ordering webpage, click on the section named “Locate a Lab” to find the LabCorp location nearest you. For background information on this program, click here.
Some important information: you will need a credit card, online access, your doctor’s fax number, and a printer. You can see the price of each test before you order it. Fill out the section asking for your doctor’s information, including his fax number, so that results can be sent to him. Results will also be emailed to you. There is $9.50 service fee each time tests are ordered. After you have paid with your credit card, you print out a requisition for the blood test to take to the LabCorp nearest you. For commonly ordered tests, results will probably be available the next day. For questions or problems, call Prepaid at 1-800-903-3921.
Look at the list below for the tests your doctor has ordered. Click on the test number and you will be taken directly to the test's page, where you click "add to cart." Then use your browser's back button to return to this page to choose other tests your doctor has ordered. After you have finished, click on the “cart” button and you will be taken to checkout.
Tip: if you print out this page, you can take it to your doctor's office and ask him to circle the tests he wants you to get.
If one of your tests is not listed below, you may need your doctor’s help in finding the correct test. He may be willing to look it up on the Prepaid ordering webpage. Or he may be able to give you the LabCorp number for the test, available in the LabCorp directory of tests.
Or you can try locating the test yourself. Go to the Prepaid ordering webpage. Enter the test name or the test number in the "product search" box at the top left hand corner of the page, just above the “cart.” Click on the "search" button and you will be taken to the test's page; then click "add to cart."
