What are the benefits of using Blood-Check's services ?

    Much like an efficient machine, the human body needs to have routine check ups. Blood-Check.com's services have been designed to provide patients with timely, crucial information about their personal health and wellness. 

    There are several tests offered by Blood-Check that can dramatically enlighten you on issues like fertility, cancer prevention, monitoring blood-glucose, sexually transmitted disease, kidney functions and numerous others.

    Moreover, if you are signing up for life insurance and you would like to know the state of your health before your insurance does, Blood-Check's simple "initial profile test" may provide you with all of the information you need.

    If you are an employer, and wish to provide drug testing and wellness screenings for your employees, Blood-Check.com's "corporate sales programs" may be ideal.

Do I need my doctor‘s prescription to get my blood test?

    Your doctor’s order is not necessary to get your blood tested. Our health screening tests offered to consumers are intended for use as educational tools for preventive healthcare. Ultimately, you may wish to consult a physician, although this may not be necessary.

Are there any hidden costs?

    Blood-Check.com offers simple, flat-rate pricing. You are responsible to pay for the test you choose and nothing more. Additional services, such as other tests, or consulting with our staff physicians are optional, and therefore at additional cost.

Are Blood-Check.com's services covered by my insurance?

    We cannot guarantee that an insurance company will reimburse you for a screening test. Please contact your insurance representative or your benefits coordinator to discover the extent of your coverage. Traditionally, about 50% of the claims are reimbursed 80-100% if the deductible has been satisfied.  Some insurance companies do not pay for preventative health screening because the tests are not considered "medically necessary". Your health is important and you may choose to make your own decisions.

Will Medicare pay for this?

    No. These tests are for wellness screening and assessment. Medicare does not pay since the tests are not considered "medically necessary". It is illegal to file a claim for a screening test with Medicare or Medicaid. Please contact your state's representative for more information.

Can my family and friends have a blood test done even if they are in another state?

    Blood-Check.com operates throughout most of the continental United States. By special arrangement we may be able to accommodate patients in Alaska and Hawaii or in U.S. territories. Overall though, there is a high probability that your friends and family will live close to a contracted Blood-Check.com center. Please contact us to find out more.

Are the results of my test confidential?

    Yes, 100%! We respect your privacy and maintain complete  confidentiality. You are the only one who receives the results unless you direct us otherwise. Not even your insurance company will obtain the results unless you provide them to your carrier or your physician. If you request, we will fax a copy of your report to your doctor. All we need is the doctor’s name, phone number and fax number.

Will I be able to understand the results of my tests?

    Blood-Check.com will make every effort to provide you with the education you need to understand your test results. Please refer to Tests and Descriptions for descriptions of the blood test reports.

    Our aim is to provide you with tools for early warning of developing poor health conditions and direct you to information on wellness and disease prevention. Though we cannot diagnose or treat disease, we can offer you recommendations for diet, lifestyle and nutritional supplements based on the results of your health screening. We recommend you seek a licensed healthcare provider if your test results are outside of normal reference ranges.

    If you have any questions, comments or suggestions please email us.
