Hillsboro CMP Tests

A CMP test measures the levels of 14 compounds in your blood to help you and your doctor learn more about your body's metabolism and chemical balance. A CMP test includes albumin, ALP, ALT, AST, total bilirubin, and total protein, as well as the eight tests that make up a basic metabolic panel (BUN, glucose, calcium, CO2, creatine, chloride, potassium, and sodium). CMP testing may be part of a routine physical examination or may be requested by your doctor to diagnose diabetes, liver disease, or renal disease.

The tests performed as part of a CMP can assess the following body functions and processes:

  • Metabolism
  • Blood sugar levels
  • Kidney function
  • Lung function
  • Blood acid and base balance
  • Protein levels
  • Electrolyte levels
  • Fluid levels
  • Organ function

  • What is a CMP blood test?

    A CMP blood test looks for 14 different compounds in your blood to help you and your doctor figure out if you have one or more major health issues. This test can assess your liver and kidney function as well as give information about your protein, calcium, and blood sugar levels. CMP tests are typically performed as part of a standard medical examination, but they can also be used to diagnose liver and kidney disease.

  • How much do CMP tests cost in Hillsboro?

    The cost of a CMP test is determined by a variety of factors, including provider costs, geographic location, and whether your health insurance covers it. The easiest way to find out how much a CMP test costs is to call the CMP provider directly or check with your health insurance provider to see if the test is covered.

  • Does insurance cover CMP testing in Hillsboro?

    Yes, many health insurance plans will cover some or all of the cost of a CMP test, especially if your doctor determines that it is medically necessary given your present health situation. Some CMP test providers may contact your insurance provider on your behalf to confirm coverage, but you should also check with your health provider before selecting a CMP provider.

  • Where should I get a comprehensive metabolic panel in Hillsboro?

    Many doctors will recommend you to the lab or hospital where they regularly work when referring you for a CMP. A CMP test, on the other hand, can be obtained from any healthcare practitioner who offers this service, including urgent care clinics, hospitals, and clinical laboratories. You may also use Solv to locate the best CMP testing companies in your area.

  • How long does it take to get CMP blood test results in Hillsboro?

    It can take anything from a few hours to a day for your CMP blood test results to arrive. Some CMP providers will contact you immediately when the results are ready and allow you to review them online, while others will send the data to your doctor. Inquire with the CMP provider about when your test results will be available.

  • What is the normal range for a comprehensive metabolic panel?

    The "typical" range for data in a CMP will vary significantly since different CMP providers may utilize different metrics. Total protein levels should be between 6.0 and 8.3 g/dL, with albumin levels between 3.4 and 5.4 g/dL. Inquire with the CMP provider about the specific ranges for each value in the test that they deem typical.

  • Do I need to see a doctor before getting a CMP test in Hillsboro?

    For this test, some CMP testing firms require a physician's reference, while others do not. Your doctor may prescribe a CMP test as part of a routine physical exam or if liver or renal illness is suspected. Check with the CMP provider to determine if you need a doctor's reference before making an appointment or showing up for the CMP test.

In rare situations, a doctor may come to your home to collect a blood sample for the CMP test before sending it to the lab. Inquire with your doctor about whether at-home CMP testing is possible or feasible for you, based on your current health situation.
