NT-proBNP (Heart Failure Marker) at Labcorp: test code, price, and how to order
Labcorp OnDemand, Labcorp's own consumer site, does not sell the NT-proBNP test (we last matched its catalog on Sep 12, 2026), so there is no walk-up consumer price at Labcorp itself. Two routes get it drawn there: a doctor's order, billed to insurance or at the lab's self-pay rate, or TestWell — $224.99 plus one $6 lab processing fee, $230.99 all-in for one test — where a licensed physician authorizes the order and the Labcorp requisition arrives by email. The collection, the Labcorp laboratory and the result are the same either way.

Labcorp OnDemand does not list this test, so the TestWell price is the self-ordered price at Labcorp; a doctor-ordered draw is billed through insurance or at the lab's self-pay rate. We re-match Labcorp OnDemand's catalog periodically; if the lab starts selling this test direct, its price will appear here.

Frequently asked questions
- How much is a NT-proBNP test at Labcorp?
- Labcorp OnDemand, Labcorp's own consumer site, does not sell the NT-proBNP test (we last matched its catalog on Sep 12, 2026), so there is no walk-up consumer price at Labcorp itself. Two routes get it drawn there: a doctor's order, billed to insurance or at the lab's self-pay rate, or TestWell — $224.99 plus one $6 lab processing fee, $230.99 all-in for one test — where a licensed physician authorizes the order and the Labcorp requisition arrives by email. The collection, the Labcorp laboratory and the result are the same either way.
- What is the Labcorp test no. for a NT-proBNP test?
- Labcorp test no. 143000. On a Labcorp requisition the test is printed as "NT-proBNP (Heart Failure Marker)", billing code CPT 83880. If you are holding a doctor's order, that is the line to look for; a TestWell requisition carries the same code.
- Can I walk into Labcorp for a NT-proBNP test without a doctor?
- Yes, with a requisition. Labcorp patient service centers draw what a requisition orders; they do not write orders. You can get one from your doctor, or order through TestWell ($224.99 + $6 fee), where a licensed physician in our network authorizes the order and the Labcorp requisition arrives by email, usually within minutes. Labcorp OnDemand does not list this test, so TestWell is the self-ordered route at Labcorp. New York and New Jersey do not allow self-ordered draws at Quest or Labcorp; TestWell orders from those states route to BioReference instead.
- Do I need an appointment at Labcorp?
- Most Labcorp patient service centers take walk-ins, and an appointment on Labcorp's site shortens the wait. Bring a photo ID and the emailed requisition (on your phone is fine). No fasting is required for this test. No fasting required. Rest for 15 minutes before the blood draw for best results.
- How long do Labcorp NT-proBNP results take?
- Results post to your TestWell portal in 1–3 business days after the draw, with reference ranges and the option to share them with your clinician. Labcorp runs the sample in its own CLIA-certified laboratory whichever way it was ordered, so the result and the turnaround are the same as a doctor-ordered NT-proBNP test.
- Is a NT-proBNP test cheaper at Labcorp or Quest Diagnostics?
- Through TestWell the price is the same $224.99 at either lab — pick the location that is convenient; the requisition is written for the lab you choose. Neither Labcorp OnDemand nor Quest Health lists this test for consumers, so TestWell's price is the self-ordered price at both labs.
- Can I buy a NT-proBNP test on Labcorp OnDemand?
- Not as of our last catalog match (Sep 12, 2026) — Labcorp OnDemand did not list the NT-proBNP test among the tests it sells to consumers. A doctor's order or a TestWell order ($224.99 + $6 fee) are the routes, and both are drawn at the same Labcorp patient service centers and run in the same Labcorp laboratory under test no. 143000.
