- Levels/Inside Tracker – $300–$700 depending on panel depth
- Ulta Lab Tests – $200–$500 for comprehensive panels
- LabCorp OnDemand – $150–$400 for broad panels
Doctor-Ordered (Through Insurance)
- With insurance: Often $0–$50 copay if medically justified
- Without insurance: $300–$800+ out of pocket
Premium/Concierge Options
- Life Extension – ~$200–$400 for comprehensive panels
- Cleveland HeartLab or similar specialty labs – $500–$1,500+
What Affects Price:
- Number of markers tested (basic = 20–30, comprehensive = 100+)
- Whether hormones, genetics, or specialty markers are included
- Your location and provider
My Top Recommendations:
- Best value: Function Health or Ulta Lab Tests

- Most comprehensive: Function Health
