How is ordering blood work through Vitals Vault different from going through my doctor’s office?
“When you order blood work through your doctor, your results are filtered through insurance billing codes, which limits what gets tested to what’s “medically necessary.” Most standard physicals include only 14–20 biomarkers — a basic CBC, metabolic panel, and lipid panel.”
View in the company profileWhy does a comparable 120+ biomarker panel cost $1,700+ through a hospital but $99 through Vitals Vault?
“Hospital and clinic pricing is built around insurance reimbursement models, facility overhead, and intermediary billing layers — none of which benefit the patient paying out of pocket. Vitals Vault operates as a direct-to-consumer platform, negotiating wholesale access to Quest Diagnostics labs and eliminating the physician referral markup.”
View in the company profileWhat’s the difference between the 14 biomarkers my annual physical tests and Vitals Vault’s 120+ biomarker panel?
“A standard annual physical typically includes a basic metabolic panel (glucose, kidney function, electrolytes), CBC (complete blood count), and a standard lipid panel (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides) — roughly 14–20 individual values.”
View in the company profileDoes Vitals Vault use the same CLIA-certified Quest Diagnostics labs my doctor sends me to?
“Yes. Vitals Vault is powered by Quest Diagnostics, one of the two largest clinical laboratory networks in the United States.”
View in the company profileWhat’s the best way to use expiring HSA or FSA dollars on preventive health testing?
“Vitals Vault is HSA/FSA eligible, making it an ideal use of health savings dollars before they expire at year-end. Comprehensive blood testing panels qualify as preventive care under IRS guidelines for HSA/FSA spending.”
