​This year's test options, descriptions, and prices:

HEALTH FAIR PANEL (REQUIRED) - $45 
Which includes:
  • Hemogram
    • WBC: White blood cells help fight infection
    • Hemoglobin & Hematocrit: indicators of anemia
    • RBC (Red cell count)
    • MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW mathematical calculation of the volume of RBC’s and hemoglobin content
    • Platelets: Tiny cells that aid in clot formation
  • BUN/Creatinine and eGFR – Indicators of kidney function. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a test used to check how well the kidneys are working. Specifically, it estimates how much blood passes through the glomeruli each minute. Glomeruli are the tiny filters in the kidneys that filter waste from the blood.
  • Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Calcium – These electrolytes, in the form of ions, participate in most of the body’s functions. They are important in the function of nervous and muscle tissue (Potassium & Calcium), bone formation (Calcium) and in activation of various chemical reactions in the cell.

  • ALT, Total Bilirubin, Alk Phos, Total Protein, AST - Indicators of liver function.
  • Total Protein – Found throughout the body, functions in many capacities, building block of all tissues.
  • Albumin – A fraction of protein which contains the immune globulins (help fight disease), is critical in moving of some ions (Calcium & Magnesium). Low level can indicate malnutrition.
  • Lipids – The blood’s “fats”, cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL- the “bad” cholesterol, and HDL-the “good” cholesterol. This data is used to calculate your cardiac risk factor, or cholesterol/HDL ratio.

ADDITIONAL TESTS (OPTIONAL):
HgbA1c - $50 - Hemoglobin A1c, used to monitor a person's diabetes, diagnose diabetes, and to help identify those at an increased risk of developing diabetes.
