About this procedure

A routine blood draw (venipuncture) — the technician part of any lab order. Often billed separately from the lab tests themselves.

What to expect

Takes 1-2 minutes. A small needle in a vein in your arm. Hydrate beforehand for an easier stick. The fee is for the draw itself; the lab tests are billed separately. Look for in-network labs to avoid surprise out-of-network charges.
