A urinalysis checks a urine sample for signs of infection, kidney disease, diabetes and other problems. This version uses a manual dipstick reading plus a microscope exam of the urine for cells, crystals and bacteria.

What the price covers

The price covers the dipstick test and the microscope exam. A urine culture, if ordered, is a separate test.
