This test is covered for a flat rate of $155 by some PPO insurance plans if you have met your deductible and have out of network coverage for lab tests. Please call our office at 303-845-1827 to use insurance billing. Note that if you are using insurance for any Sanesco test, a consultation is not included. If you are interested in reviewing your results with our Naturopathic Practitioner, you may add on a consultation for an additional fee.
**If this is your first test with Sanesco, we highly suggest ordering the HPA-G Complete Profile instead, as it includes all the hormones and PEA (a promising biomarker in both the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD).**
This test is done easily at home and then mailed directly to the lab. The results will be sent back to us and then mailed to you. When you receive the results, call us to request your free 15 minute consultation (full paying clients only, see insurance pay above). Our Naturopathic Practitioner will review your results and answer your questions.
