Everyone age 20 and older should have their cholesterol measured at least once every five years. The higher your LDL level, and the more risk factors you have, the greater your chances are of developing heart disease or having a heart attack.

What does the Lipid Panel Screening include?

Cholesterol, total; high-density lipoprotein (HDL); low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (calculation); triglycerides; very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol calculation. Click HERE to view this information on the LabCorp website.

Can other blood panels be run?

Yes, CDH can request that additional panels be run with an order from your health care provider for the specific labs. However, we are only able to offer this service to insured individuals (Note: We are unable to offer additional labs to those with Medicare.) CDH will submit the additional order(s) with your blood sample to the lab. LabCorp will bill your insurance and will provide results to your health care provider. For specific costs, please call LabCorp at 208-322-3086.
