At a glance

Discounted blood test bundles group the most commonly ordered labs, lipids, thyroid hormones, A1c, iron, liver, and kidney markers, so each test costs less than ordering it on its own. This promotion covers 15 popular panels at 33-50% off, from a $29.45 iron and ferritin check to tiered general health workups. It fits anyone who wants meaningful lab data while paying out of pocket.

Best suited for

  • Shoppers comparing prices on routine blood work
  • People paying out of pocket for labs without insurance coverage
  • Anyone who wants several related markers checked in one draw instead of ordering tests individually
  • Regular self-testers timing baseline or recheck labs to promotional pricing

Key biomarker ranges

Commonly used adult reference ranges for markers this panel measures, labs vary, so always interpret results against your lab's stated ranges and with your doctor.

Fasting Glucose (mg/dL)

Commonly used reference ranges place fasting glucose at 70–99 mg/dL; results vary with sleep, stress, and recent illness, and labs differ slightly.

Fasting Glucose reference ranges (mg/dL)
ZoneRange
Low50–70 mg/dL
Optimal70–100 mg/dL
Prediabetic range100–126 mg/dL
Diabetic range126–160 mg/dL
Hemoglobin A1c (%)

Commonly used reference ranges place HbA1c below 5.7%; conditions affecting red blood cells can skew results, so labs and clinicians interpret in context.

Hemoglobin A1c reference ranges (%)
ZoneRange
Optimal4–5.7 %
Prediabetic range5.7–6.5 %
Diabetic range6.5–10 %
Fasting Insulin (µIU/mL)

Commonly used reference ranges accept up to ~25 µIU/mL, but many clinicians view single-digit fasting insulin as the more informative target; assays vary by lab.

Fasting Insulin reference ranges (µIU/mL)
ZoneRange
Low0–2 µIU/mL
Optimal2–10 µIU/mL
Above optimal10–25 µIU/mL
High25–30 µIU/mL

The importance of testing

Routine blood work adds up quickly when you order tests one at a time. Bundled panels lower the cost per marker: the Lipid Panel with hs-CRP, the Hemoglobin A1c-Insulin-Glucose combination, and the Kidney, Liver & Electrolyte panel each pack multiple related markers into a single discounted draw. The current promotion prices most focused bundles between roughly $26 and $49.

Cheaper does not have to mean thinner. The tiered General Health panels scale with your budget, 30 biomarkers at the Basic level, 66 at Basic Plus, 86 at Advanced, and 113 at Advanced Plus, so you choose how deep to go rather than whether to test at all. Focused two-test bundles cover single questions, like iron status or inflammation, for less than a typical copay-plus-visit.

A discount is most useful when it fits a plan. Many self-testers establish a baseline with one of the general health tiers, then use the smaller bundles for periodic rechecks of the markers they are actively working on. Whatever you order, review out-of-range results with your doctor, promotional pricing changes the cost of the data, not how it should be interpreted.

Frequently asked questions

How much do these discounted lab panels cost?

During the promotion, focused bundles start at $26.37 (Urinalysis Complete and Uric Acid) and the Iron Total and Ferritin panel is $29.45, while the tiered General Health panels run from $67.64 (Basic) to $508.98 (Advanced Plus, regularly $1,017.95). All prices are promotional at time of writing, so confirm final pricing on the partner page.

Do I need a promo code to get the discount?

The partner page lists promotion code ULTAE733 alongside sale prices showing 33-50% off. Enter the code at checkout and verify the discount is applied before paying, since promotions and codes change over time.

Can I order discounted lab tests without a doctor's visit?

Yes, these panels are ordered online without a doctor's referral, which is part of what keeps the total cost down. You schedule your own draw at a local lab, receive results securely, and can bring them to your physician to review.

Are cheaper bundles less thorough than the big panels?

They measure fewer markers by design, not lower-quality ones. A two-test bundle like Lipid Panel plus hs-CRP answers a focused question, while the General Health tiers (30 to 113 biomarkers) provide a broad baseline, many people combine one tier with small bundles for later rechecks.

Is discounted direct-to-consumer testing available in my state?

Direct-to-consumer lab testing is restricted or prohibited in New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, so residents of those states may be blocked at the partner's checkout. Most other US states allow you to order and schedule online.
