What it is

A comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP) is a blood test of 14 measurements: the eight in a basic panel plus albumin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase, ALT, AST and bilirubin. It checks blood sugar, electrolytes, kidney function and liver function in one test.

What the price covers

The price usually covers running all 14 tests. The blood draw is often billed separately.

1 row held back from this comparison

It is priced below $1 or below a tenth of the national median for code 80053 ($107.50). Such a line is almost always a physician's fee billed separately, an assistant's share or a placeholder — a real charge, but not the price of the procedure itself.
