On average, cholesterol tests cost between $20 and $40; osteoporosis tests, about $35; and H. Pylori tests, between $20 and $25. Results for H. Pylori and most cholesterol tests are generally available immediately, the rest take about a week. Many pharmacies market these tests as their own; however, the vast majority use equipment from, or send samples to, the labs of one London company, Pathology Management Company (PMC). PMC says that it expects 1,800 U.K. pharmacies to offer its testing services. (references) | ||
