All of our health screenings start with key heart and kidney tests because the body’s systems work together. Your heart, kidneys, and metabolism all play a role in keeping you healthy. These tests give a strong foundation for understanding your health, no matter which health screening you choose.
A1c
Measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months and is used to diagnose and monitor prediabetes and diabetes. Also known as hemoglobin A1c or HbA1c, this test is useful for evaluating long-term control of blood glucose concentrations in patients with diabetes, diagnosing diabetes, and identifying patients at increased risk for diabetes (prediabetes).
eGFR
Measures how well your kidneys are filtering your blood. eGFR uses your creatinine level (natural waste product), along with your age and sex, to estimate kidney function. A higher eGFR number indicates better kidney function.
hsCRP
Measures levels of C-reactive protein in your blood, a substance produced by the liver in response to inflammation. The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) test can detect inflammation caused by various conditions such as infection, injury, or chronic disease. Chronically elevated CRP levels are associated with an increased risk of heart disease.
Lipid Panel
Measures the amount of cholesterol and fats in your blood. Doctors typically order a lipid panel to assess your risk for heart disease and stroke. The lipid panel provides information about HDL (“good”) cholesterol, LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, total cholesterol (both HDL and LDL), triglycerides (a type of fat in the blood), and VLDL, which primarily carries triglycerides.
Lp(a)
Measures lipoprotein(a), a lesser-known type of cholesterol that runs in families. Elevated levels of Lp(a) can contribute to blocked arteries, thus reducing blood flow to your heart, brain, and other vital organs. It can also increase clotting and cause inflammation in blood vessels. Lp(a) tests are not typically included in standard lipid panels.
Additional Specialized Tests
You may be offered additional tests based on your health profile. These tests provide in-depth insights into specific areas of your health.

Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF)
In people with the liver disease MASH (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis), this test measures how likely the disease will progress to more serious problems, such as cirrhosis and liver-related events. ELF includes blood tests for hyaluronic acid (HA), procollagen type III amino-terminal peptide (PIIINP), and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1).
FibroScan*
Measures liver stiffness and fat content using a non-invasive ultrasound scan. Liver stiffness can indicate scarring, which may be a sign of fatty liver disease, MASH, or other health conditions. Fat buildup in the liver can lead to serious conditions such as cirrhosis and liver failure, if left untreated.
Liver Function Tests
Measures specific enzyme and protein levels in the blood to check how well your liver is working and detect signs of disease or damage, such as liver scarring (fibrosis). Liver function tests include blood tests for albumin, alkaline phosphatase, ALT (SGPT), AST (SGOT), direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, and total protein.
pTau*
Measures levels of a protein that builds up in the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease. While pTau occurs naturally in the body, elevated pTau levels in the blood may indicate an increased likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia, 10-20 years before symptoms appear.
