Fitomics Research Labs Discount Blood Testing

can I do testing on a state I don’t live in to get around the NY prohibition?

Fitomics will go by the address you use when you create your account. That is your address of record, so will determine qualifications. There are even some Canadian members that live near the border, that use a U.S. based address and get labs drawn at U.S. based LabCorp facilities.

The restrictions are related to state laws. So if you use an address that qualifies, not sure a requisition will work at a LabCorp location in a prohibited state. Does that make sense?

For example NY requires an MD to order (and analyze) ordered blood work. So until Fitomics adds a NY licensed MD, they cannot complete orders for that state.

Dumb question but looking into this and once I pay the fee do I have to pay LabCorp too?

Nope, you just pay the monthly subscription fee and then the costs for whatever tests you choose off the fitomics site. When you go to the lab to do the deed you don’t pay them anything.
 
@Don Ligero how about a punch card type deal where folks who get the same test repeatedly can prepay for a bunch of em without having to participate in a monthly program. Routine IGF1 and hemoglobin a1c are going to be tough to rationalize the ongoing membership fee, and I only need so many men’s hormone panels etc to make it worthwhile. Just some food for thought, not sure if mine is an edge case or worth catering to

Working on options for sure. I want people to do what is best for them always. So even if not in Fitomics best interest, one option is to subscribe, order several tests (requisitions are good for 180 days). Then cancel subscription. Repeat again in the future.

There is a balance in that the monthly subscription covers draw fees. If they sold 'one-offs', they would have to charge for the draw fee for each test.

The other issue is LabCorp terms of service. The terms do not allow providers (Fitomics) the ability to bulk sell testing. Fitomics is able to offer the deeply discounted prices to subscribers, because they are classified as members of Fitomics services (which have been offered for over 4 years). Just a hoop to jump through to offer the discounted prices without them being 'public' bulk prices.

Fitomics is definitely working on creative ways to work for their customers as they scale this service.

Thanks for the suggestion.
