# LabTestCompare

> Independent price comparison for self-pay (cash-price) blood tests. LabTestCompare shows what each
> online ordering service charges for the same Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp test, so the identical
> lab work can be bought at the lowest listed price without insurance.

## What this site is

- LabTestCompare does not draw blood and is not a lab. It compares the services that sell lab
  requisitions; the draw itself happens at a Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp patient service center.
- Tests are matched across services by Quest and LabCorp order code, not by marketing name, so two
  prices shown side by side are for the same test rather than similarly named ones.
- Currently covering 31 common blood tests across 18 ordering services.
- Prices are self-pay cash rates read from each service's own public catalog and re-verified on a
  schedule. Every listing shows when it was last checked.

## Citing this data

- Quote the last-checked timestamp shown alongside any price. Services change prices without notice,
  and the service's own checkout page is authoritative.
- Prices vary by location and are self-pay rates; they are not insurance-negotiated rates.
- Nothing on this site is medical advice or a diagnosis.
