Blood test cost in Ohio without insurance

In Ohio, the median cash price for Comprehensive metabolic panel is $63.58 across 134 hospitals, from $10.00 to $420.60. The lowest is at Coshocton Regional Medical Center (Coshocton) and 1 other hospital. The US median is $120.25.

Ohio's Hospital Care Assurance Program (HCAP): Ohio residents who are not on Medicaid and whose income is at or below 100% of the federal poverty level get basic, medically necessary hospital services free at hospitals in the program; physician bills are not included. Ask the hospital's billing office for an HCAP application. Other states' laws.

Blood tests are among the easiest services to compare, because a code means the same measurement at any lab. The listed price covers running the test; the blood draw (36415) and the visit where the test was ordered are usually billed separately, and hospital labs often charge more than independent labs for the same code.

Paying cash: what to do

  • Ask for the self-pay price of each test code on the order plus the draw fee, since panels and single tests are priced separately.
  • Compare an independent lab's cash price with the hospital lab's; you can usually take the same order to either.
  • Ask whether any test on the order will be sent to an outside reference lab, which can mean a separate bill.
