Do I need to see a doctor before getting a cholesterol test?

Typically, a cholesterol test is a simple blood test. While you are not need to consult a doctor first, it is a good idea to phone your physician's office and inquire about the type of test that will be performed. This is because some cholesterol tests may necessitate a fast prior to the test.

How much do cholesterol tests cost?

The cost of a cholesterol test is determined by a number of factors, including the type of test necessary, the location where the test is performed, and whether or not you have health insurance. A cholesterol test at a walk-in clinic or drugstore, for example, could cost roughly $100.

Does insurance cover cholesterol screening?

Cholesterol testing is frequently done as part of a yearly physical examination, which is usually covered by insurance. Your insurance plan, however, may impose some restrictions on cholesterol testing. They might, for example, pay for a cholesterol test every five years. You can call your insurance carrier or look at your policy documentation to find out what is covered by your policy.

Great discreet service, scheduled my visit and paid for for the test online not in Showed up at lab, checked in and was seen within minutes. Blood and urine were collected, test results came back quickly within 2 days because I did my test on a Friday. Quick, easy and cheap. Didn't have to wait for a visit to my PCP, and then get referral to lab.

I came in one day without an appoint and waited two hours as a walk-in before I had to leave without being tested. I made an appointment through Quest Lab Testing for the next day, showed up on time, got tested easily and was on my way in 15-20 minutes. Staff is friendly and helpful.

My sister got covid unfortunately while we were traveling to Chicago. We called the closest urgent care at about 12:40 pm, which happened to be Aayu in Wicker Park. They said they could see her before 1 pm. She wasn't in the clinic long to get a test to confirm if she had it, and they expedited the test and emailed her by 3 pm to say she had it. Then they expedited a paxlovid prescription right up the street that she was able to pick up quickly. By 5 pm she was quarantined completely, and she was better already a few days later. Thank you SO MUCH, Aayu, for taking such good care of my sister. I know her long-term health and immediate outcome are both better for having been there. I appreciate you and your efficiency of care so much! I will recommend you to anybody and everybody in that area.
