## What does the Hepatitis Panel (A, B, C) test tell you?

Comprehensive hepatitis screening covering Hepatitis A, B, and C antibodies and antigens.

This general hepatitis panel screens for the three most common types of viral hepatitis. Hepatitis A is typically acute and self-resolving, Hepatitis B can be acute or chronic, and Hepatitis C is often chronic and can lead to liver damage if untreated. The panel includes Hepatitis A antibody (Total), Hepatitis B surface antigen and antibody, Hepatitis B core antibody, and Hepatitis C antibody.

**Clinical use:** Screens for Hepatitis A (anti-HAV), Hepatitis B (HBsAg + anti-HBc), and Hepatitis C (anti-HCV). The CDC's universal hepatitis screening recommendation for all adults ≥18.

## Who should order it?

All adults at least once (CDC recommendation), anyone with elevated liver enzymes, IV drug history, tattoos/piercings at unregulated facilities, pre-pregnancy planning, pre-employment in healthcare, or known exposure.

## Biomarkers measured

- Hep A Ab (Total)
- Hep B Surface Ag
- Hep B Surface Ab
- Hep B Core Ab
- Hep C Ab

## How much does a Hepatitis Panel (A, B, C) test cost?

A Hepatitis Panel (A, B, C) test costs $69.99 at TestWell — $75.99 all-in when ordered alone, because the $6 lab processing fee is charged once per order, with no draw fee or physician fee added. Hospital outpatient labs typically bill around $280.00 self-pay for the same test, and often more. With insurance, what you pay depends on your deductible and your plan's negotiated rate; TestWell's price is fixed before the draw and is HSA/FSA-eligible.

## Common questions about the Hepatitis Panel (A, B, C) test

### Why test for all three even if I'm vaccinated for A and B?

Confirms vaccine immunity actually took (5-10% of vaccinees don't seroconvert), rules out an unrecognized prior B infection, and screens for Hepatitis C — which has no vaccine and is curable with modern direct-acting antivirals if caught.

### How much does a Hepatitis Panel cost without insurance?

TestWell charges $69.99 — vs $159 at Quest Direct and $250-$500 at clinics.

### Do I need to fast?

No fasting required.

### What does a positive HBsAg mean?

Active Hepatitis B infection — either acute or chronic. Needs HBeAg, HBV DNA viral load, and liver function follow-up with a hepatologist or infectious disease specialist.

### How long does Hepatitis C take to show up?

Antibodies (anti-HCV) appear 8-11 weeks post-exposure. For earlier detection or to confirm a positive antibody result, follow up with HCV RNA PCR — Quest and Labcorp both offer it.

### What if my Hepatitis C is positive?

A reactive anti-HCV requires HCV RNA PCR to confirm active infection (about 25% of antibody-positive cases have cleared the virus naturally). Active Hep C is curable in 8-12 weeks with direct-acting antivirals — get the confirmatory test promptly and see a hepatologist.
