💳Costs & Insurance

Why is mobile phlebotomy more expensive than lab visits?

You're paying for a professional to travel to your location with clinical supplies. The convenience, time savings, and patient comfort justify the premium over a walk-in lab visit.

The cost covers:

  • Phlebotomist time including travel
  • Fuel and vehicle costs
  • Single-use, sterile supplies
  • Specimen packaging and shipping
  • Professional liability insurance
  • Platform credentialing and oversight
  • For patients who value convenience, or who would otherwise need to arrange transportation, take time off work, or sit in a waiting room, the premium is often well worth it.
