For the standard Hep B + MMR + Varicella immunity panel required by most nursing programs, SchoolTiters is the lowest all-in price at $139.00. Accesa Labs sells a bundled Immunization Titer Package at $189.00 with no checkout fees. The other competitors do not advertise a single combined panel price; buying the three titers individually (plus their $4-$6 physician or service fees) typically totals well over $200 at Walk-In Lab, HealthLabs.com, and Request A Test. Always check the order-review screen at any DTC service before assuming the listed price is final.

Walk-In Lab and HealthLabs both add a $6.00 "physician fee" per order at checkout that is not shown on the product page. Request A Test adds a $4.00 service fee per order at checkout. These fees cover the physician review or platform service required to issue a lab order without a doctor's visit. SchoolTiters and Accesa Labs include the physician order in the product page price with no fees added at checkout.

Among the major DTC lab services, SchoolTiters is the only one that allows ordering titer testing for people under 18 without restriction. HealthLabs.com allows under-18 testing with parent or guardian consent. Walk-In Lab, Request A Test, and Accesa Labs restrict ordering to adults 18 and older. This makes SchoolTiters the practical choice for high school CNA students, dental hygiene applicants entering programs at 17, and parents ordering for minor children.

No. All five services in this comparison are direct-to-consumer self-pay only. None of them bill insurance, request insurance information, or file insurance claims. You pay the published price (plus any hidden checkout fees) and receive the lab requisition needed to complete testing at the partner lab. HSA and FSA cards are accepted at all five services.

At SchoolTiters and Accesa Labs, yes — the physician order is included in the listed price with no separate fee. At Walk-In Lab and HealthLabs, the order requires a $6.00 physician fee added at checkout. At Request A Test, the order is included but a $4.00 per-order service fee is added at checkout. None of the services require an in-person doctor's visit; the physician order is generated electronically and emailed with the lab requisition.

For most major DTC services, results are available within 1–3 business days after sample collection. SchoolTiters, HealthLabs.com, and Request A Test all advertise 1–3 day turnaround. Walk-In Lab quotes 2–3 days. Accesa Labs averages about 4 days. Same-day testing is available at all five services if you visit the lab early in the day; the lab processing time is what determines result delivery.

Yes. All five services use CLIA-certified national laboratories (Quest, LabCorp, or both) and provide quantitative numerical results with the issuing lab name, ordering physician, and collection facility — the documentation requirements that nursing schools, dental programs, and clinical rotation sites typically require. If your school requires a specific form filled out by the lab, SchoolTiters is the only service that advertises form-completion help; with other services, you may need to transcribe your results onto the school's form yourself.

SchoolTiters sells the QuantiFERON Gold blood test at $137.00 all-in, which is the lowest verified price among the DTC services compared here. Walk-In Lab charges $145.00 all-in ($139 + $6 physician fee). Accesa Labs charges $149.00 with no additional fees. Request A Test charges $149.00 all-in at LabCorp ($145 + $4 service fee) or $209.00 at Quest ($205 + $4 service fee). HealthLabs.com is $199.00 all-in. The QuantiFERON Gold test typically costs more than a single titer because it requires specialized incubation tubes and a 24-hour laboratory processing window. For students who need both TB testing and the standard immunity panel, SchoolTiters bundles QuantiFERON Gold + Hep B + MMR + Varicella for $279 all-in.
