The Test Grade. The Reason Behind It.

Potentially useful for the right buyer, with meaningful evidence, coverage, transparency, access, cost, terms, or privacy tradeoffs to review.

A lower grade does not mean a panel is a bad personal fit. Your Fit Score can be higher when its purpose, price, sample, access, or support matches what you need.

The balance

The Strengths. The Tradeoffs.

Strengths

  • Combines testosterone, thyroid, cardiometabolic and blood-count measurements in one blood panel.
  • Order online for healthcare-provider review and approval, then visit a Quest location to provide the sample. A healthcare-provider office visit is not required.

Watch-outs

  • The exact measurements counted in the advertised 60-biomarker total are not fully reconciled. The immature-cell reflex depends on criteria that are not specified.
  • Exact performing laboratory assignment, assay-specific analytical validation and a specimen report are not established.
  • Available to eligible US residents with a valid US driver license or state-issued ID, excluding Hawaii, US territories, New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island. Massachusetts collection may be refused under local billing arrangements; confirm the draw location before paying.
  • The general timing estimates do not guarantee an order-to-report or consultation completion date.
  • An exact fasting duration and the immature-cell reflex criteria require confirmation; Guided Optimization testing requirements are not met.
  • Results typically arrive within 14 business days. Approximately two weeks is a general estimate, and timing can vary with panel complexity. These estimates do not include consultation timing.
  • Marek adds a $10 venipuncture fee to orders of $199 or less and waives it on orders over $199. No additional payment is required at the lab. Web sales are final and cannot be cancelled after ordering; confirm any location restrictions before purchase.
