The expected cost for a cholesterol test ranges from a low of $16 in Tennessee to a high of $66 in Delaware, according to data from the Health Care Cost Institute, a nonprofit organization involving several national health insurance companies.
The data on HCCI’s Guroo.com website show that Indiana has the second-lowest expected cost at $17, with Arizona and Oklahoma at $18 for a standard lipid panel. Alaska and Wisconsin had the second-highest average at $59, with New Jersey next at $52, according to analysis of claims data from 40 million persons insured by Aetna, Assurant Health, Humana, and UnitedHealthcare. The national average is $24.
The estimated costs may vary according to a person’s health status, insurance plan, and where the service is provided, the website notes. Cost estimates were not available for eight states.
