US price context

Bought one by one at US cash-pay marketplaces, the tests we could price list at about US$3,286–4,830 for a woman (45 of 45 tests) and US$3,113–4,609 for a man (43 of 43 tests) (MDsave, Quest and others; checked 2026-10-11).

How we priced it

A panel counts once however many of its tests the package lists. A test for one sex only is counted only for that sex. Tests we could not price are left out, so this is not what a US checkup would cost. Prices marked "rough" come from a single reseller or are extrapolated from a similar test.

Radiation from this package's imaging

About 9.2 mSv from the tests we could identify, a typical adult dose for these exams: roughly 3.1 years of natural background radiation (about 3 mSv a year, US average).

This package also lists 10 items we have not matched to a test; if any of them is an X-ray, CT or PET scan, the total is higher.

  • Bone density (DXA) · about less than 0.01 mSv
  • Abdomen and pelvis CT · about 7.7 mSv
  • Low-dose chest CT · about 1.5 mSv

Typical doses from published references (RadiologyInfo.org ↗, Mettler et al. 2008 ↗); the actual dose depends on the scanner and protocol. Ask the center for its own figure.

What US screening guidelines say

The US Preventive Services Task Force is an independent US panel whose recommendations cover people without symptoms. Shown for comparison; it is not advice for you.

What US screening guidelines say about 18 of these tests
Arterial stiffness (ABI / PWV)
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of adding the ankle-brachial index to traditional risk assessment for cardiovascular disease in asymptomatic adults. (2018) · USPSTF ↗ Note: Same recommendation covers ABI, high-sensitivity CRP and coronary artery calcium score together; see the other two test rows. The USPSTF lists an update in progress for this statement that is limited to coronary artery calcium scoring; its September 2024 research plan excludes the ABI, which it says will be evaluated as a screening test in a separate future topic on peripheral artery disease.
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for peripheral artery disease and cardiovascular disease risk with the ankle-brachial index in asymptomatic adults. (2018) · USPSTF ↗ Note: A separate statement from the nontraditional-risk-factor one; see the other abi_pwv row. Neither USPSTF statement mapped here addresses pulse wave velocity (arterial stiffness).
Hearing test
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for hearing loss in adults 50 years or older. (2021) · USPSTF ↗
Blood pressure
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends screening for hypertension in adults 18 years or older with office blood pressure measurement, confirmed with measurement outside the clinical setting before starting treatment. (2021) · USPSTF ↗
Bone density (DXA)
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends screening for osteoporosis with bone density testing in postmenopausal women younger than 65 years who are at increased risk, based on a clinical risk-assessment tool. (2025) · USPSTF ↗
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for osteoporosis in men. (2025) · USPSTF ↗
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends screening for osteoporosis with bone density testing in women 65 years or older. (2025) · USPSTF ↗
CA-125
Recommended against (grade D)The USPSTF recommends against screening for ovarian cancer in asymptomatic women, including with the CA-125 blood test. (2018) · USPSTF ↗ Note: Same D-grade recommendation covers CA-125 and transvaginal/pelvic ultrasound; see pelvic_ultrasound.
Fasting glucose
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends screening for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes, including with a fasting plasma glucose test, in adults aged 35 to 70 years who have overweight or obesity. (2021) · USPSTF ↗ Note: Same recommendation names fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c and the oral glucose tolerance test as acceptable screening tests. The USPSTF suggests clinicians consider screening at an earlier age in groups with higher diabetes prevalence, including Asian American persons, and at a lower BMI (23 or higher) in Asian American persons.
Free T4
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for thyroid dysfunction in nonpregnant, asymptomatic adults. (2015) · USPSTF ↗ Note: The I statement concerns screening for thyroid dysfunction, for which the USPSTF names serum TSH as the primary screening test; T4 is described as follow-up testing after a persistently abnormal TSH.
Hemoglobin A1c
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends screening for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes, including with a hemoglobin A1c test, in adults aged 35 to 70 years who have overweight or obesity. (2021) · USPSTF ↗ Note: Same recommendation names fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c and the oral glucose tolerance test as acceptable screening tests. The USPSTF suggests clinicians consider screening at an earlier age in groups with higher diabetes prevalence, including Asian American persons, and at a lower BMI (23 or higher) in Asian American persons.
HDL cholesterol
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends that clinicians prescribe a statin for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease for adults aged 40 to 75 years who have 1 or more cardiovascular risk factors and an estimated 10-year cardiovascular risk of 10% or greater. (2022) · USPSTF ↗ Note: This grade is for starting a statin, not for the cholesterol test; the USPSTF does not grade cholesterol testing on its own. The USPSTF says the ACC/AHA Pooled Cohort Equations may be used to estimate 10-year risk; per the 2013 ACC/AHA risk-assessment guideline, those equations use total and HDL cholesterol as inputs. The statement does not apply to adults with LDL cholesterol above 190 mg/dL or known familial hypercholesterolemia.
Selective (grade C)The USPSTF recommends that clinicians selectively offer a statin for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease for adults aged 40 to 75 years who have 1 or more cardiovascular risk factors and an estimated 10-year cardiovascular risk of 7.5% to less than 10%. (2022) · USPSTF ↗ Note: This grade is for starting a statin, not for the cholesterol test; the USPSTF does not grade cholesterol testing on its own. The USPSTF says the ACC/AHA Pooled Cohort Equations may be used to estimate 10-year risk; per the 2013 ACC/AHA risk-assessment guideline, those equations use total and HDL cholesterol as inputs. The statement does not apply to adults with LDL cholesterol above 190 mg/dL or known familial hypercholesterolemia.
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of starting a statin for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease in adults 76 years or older. (2022) · USPSTF ↗ Note: This grade is for starting a statin, not for the cholesterol test; the USPSTF does not grade cholesterol testing on its own. The USPSTF says the ACC/AHA Pooled Cohort Equations may be used to estimate 10-year risk; per the 2013 ACC/AHA risk-assessment guideline, those equations use total and HDL cholesterol as inputs. The statement does not apply to adults with LDL cholesterol above 190 mg/dL or known familial hypercholesterolemia.
Height, weight and BMI
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends that clinicians offer or refer adults with a body mass index of 30 or higher to intensive, multicomponent behavioral weight-loss interventions. (2018; an update is in progress) · USPSTF ↗ Note: The grade applies to offering or referring adults with a BMI of 30 or higher to intensive behavioral weight-loss programs, not to measuring height, weight or BMI; the USPSTF says screening for obesity is now part of routine clinical practice and was not a focus of its review. The USPSTF lists an update in progress, folded into a combined topic on healthy diet, physical activity and weight loss to prevent cardiovascular disease; the 2018 statement remains the current final recommendation as of 2026-09-25.
Intraocular pressure
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for primary open-angle glaucoma in adults. (2022) · USPSTF ↗ Note: Same I-statement covers tonometry (intraocular pressure), optic-nerve/fundus imaging and OCT as candidate glaucoma-screening methods.
Low-dose chest CT
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends annual screening for lung cancer with low-dose CT in adults aged 50 to 80 years with a 20 pack-year smoking history who currently smoke or quit within the past 15 years. (2021) · USPSTF ↗ Note: Screening should stop once the person has not smoked for 15 years or develops a health problem that substantially limits life expectancy or the ability to have curative lung surgery.
Resting ECG
Recommended against (grade D)The USPSTF recommends against screening with resting or exercise ECG to prevent cardiovascular disease events in asymptomatic adults at low risk of CVD events. (2018) · USPSTF ↗
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening with resting or exercise ECG to prevent cardiovascular disease events in adults at intermediate or high risk of CVD events. (2018) · USPSTF ↗
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for atrial fibrillation with ECG in adults 50 years or older. (2022) · USPSTF ↗
Total cholesterol
Recommended (grade A/B)The USPSTF recommends that clinicians prescribe a statin for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease for adults aged 40 to 75 years who have 1 or more cardiovascular risk factors and an estimated 10-year cardiovascular risk of 10% or greater. (2022) · USPSTF ↗ Note: This grade is for starting a statin, not for the cholesterol test; the USPSTF does not grade cholesterol testing on its own.

TSH
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for thyroid dysfunction in nonpregnant, asymptomatic adults. (2015) · USPSTF ↗ Note: The I statement concerns screening for thyroid dysfunction, for which the USPSTF names serum TSH as the primary screening test; T4 is described as follow-up testing after a persistently abnormal TSH.
Urinalysis
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for bladder cancer in asymptomatic adults. (2011) · USPSTF ↗ Note: The USPSTF lists urine dipstick or microscopic urinalysis for hematuria (blood in the urine) among the bladder cancer screening tests it considered. This note covers only that use of a urinalysis.
Visual acuity
Insufficient evidence (grade I)The USPSTF says the evidence is insufficient to weigh the benefits and harms of screening for impaired visual acuity in older adults. (2022) · USPSTF ↗
Vitamin D (25-OH)

General preparation notes for 10 tests in this package

This is general information about how the exam is usually done, not medical advice for you or your family member. Requirements vary by center and by individual health history — always follow the center's own instructions and your own doctor's guidance, especially for any medicine change.

Body composition analysis

Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator: the test passes a weak electric current through the body and has traditionally not been recommended with these devices.

Total cholesterol

Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested, so the test is often done in the morning.

Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.

Triglycerides

Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested.

Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.

Fasting glucose

Usually needs at least 8 hours without food or drink except water beforehand.

Mention when booking: If you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting, and mention it to the center.

Urinalysis

Usually needs a clean-catch (midstream) sample; some tests instead ask you to collect all urine passed over 24 hours.

Mention when booking: Ask which specific urine test your provider ordered, since collection instructions vary by test.

Abdomen and pelvis CT

Usually needs a few hours without food or drink beforehand; you may be asked to drink an oral contrast liquid, and an IV contrast injection is common.

Mention when booking: Tell the center about kidney disease, contrast allergy, diabetes medicine and possible pregnancy; ask the prescribing doctor before changing any medicine.

Low-dose chest CT

Usually needs no fasting and no contrast injection; loose clothing with no metal is easiest.

Mention when booking: Tell the center if you are, or might be, pregnant.

Brain MRI

Guidelines on eating and drinking vary by center, so ask when booking. Remove jewelry and metal beforehand.

Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker, aneurysm clip, cochlear implant or other implanted device, metal fragments, pregnancy, kidney disease, or claustrophobia.

Afterwards: If you take a sedative for claustrophobia or anxiety, you'll need someone to take you home; arrange this before the scan.

Bone density (DXA)

Usually asks that you skip calcium supplements for 24 hours beforehand. Avoid clothing with metal zippers or buttons, and remove jewelry.

Mention when booking: Mention any recent barium exam or CT/nuclear-medicine contrast, and whether pregnancy is possible.

Hearing test

Usually needs no special preparation; expect to listen for tones or words through headphones, and sometimes a small probe checks how the eardrum moves.
