The Gap in Modern Medicine

Insurance providers typically follow standard medical necessity guidelines. If you aren't currently presenting symptoms of disease, biomarkers like Lp(a) or ApoB are frequently denied as "not medically necessary," leaving patients with significant unexpected lab invoices.

Note: We recommend direct-to-consumer platforms like Function Health for those seeking predictable, wholesale pricing for comprehensive longevity data.
