Cardio IQ Lipoprotein (a) from Private MD Labs

The exact offer page lists the price as $49 with the physician order and all lab fees included and no extra charges at the lab. Payment is self-pay, with health savings and flexible spending accounts accepted, and orders can be cancelled for a refund before the sample is collected.

Private MD Labs states that laboratory testing is available in 46 states, with New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island excluded by state law and Hawaii excluded because neither partner lab operates a collection site there. Samples are collected at Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp locations chosen during ordering.

The offer describes a lipoprotein(a) blood test that measures a largely inherited cholesterol-like particle linked to heart attack and stroke risk, a factor standard cholesterol panels miss. The page names typical users, including people with a family history of early heart disease or stroke, and those whose cholesterol stays high despite diet and exercise.

Results post to a secure online account with the value shown against its reference range, plus plain-language explanations, practical next steps, and a downloadable standard lab report, with trend tracking across repeat tests. The page walks through a sample lipoprotein(a) result with normal and high thresholds, and explains that the level barely changes over a lifetime, so frequent retesting is not needed.

Samples are collected at Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp patient service centers, two large national laboratory companies named on the page. The exact performing laboratory for this offer, the specific assay method, and precision or accuracy data are not published, so the laboratory evidence is incomplete.

Ordering takes about two minutes online, with the physician lab order delivered by email and a patient portal created at checkout. The lab visit takes about ten minutes, appointments are recommended since most locations do not take walk-ins, and results arrive by email and text, typically within a few business days.

The offer page states that customer data is not sold or shared, that testing is confidential, and that results are delivered through a secure online account. A fixed data-retention period is not published.

The page shows the exact price with the physician order and all lab fees included, names Quest Diagnostics and Labcorp as the collection labs, describes what is measured and how results are delivered, and links the cancellation policy.
