Hepatitis C Test

A blood test for hepatitis C — now a curable infection. It often causes no symptoms for years, so testing is the only way to catch it. Screens for antibodies and reflexes to confirm active infection. 100% confidential, results usually in 1–2 business days.

Hepatitis C is a liver infection that spreads through blood and, less commonly, sexual contact. Most people have no symptoms for years — but it's now curable with modern medications, and catching it early protects your liver. This test screens for HCV antibodies and automatically reflexes a positive to an RNA test that confirms whether the infection is still active. No judgment, and nothing is billed to insurance.

Included Tests

Hepatitis C Antibody with Reflex to HCV RNA
A blood test that screens for antibodies to the hepatitis C virus. If antibodies are found, the lab automatically runs an HCV RNA test to confirm whether the virus is currently active — distinguishing a current infection from a past, cleared one.

What This Panel Measures

🩸
Hepatitis C exposure. Detects antibodies to the hepatitis C virus, indicating current or past infection.
🔁
Active vs. past infection. A positive antibody result reflexes to an HCV RNA test that confirms whether the virus is still present.
🫀
Liver protection. Because HCV is now curable, finding it early can prevent long-term liver damage.

Who Should Get This Panel

  • You've ever shared needles or personal items that can carry blood
  • You've had unprotected sex or a new partner and want a full check
  • You've never been screened (a one-time test is recommended for most adults)
  • You received a blood transfusion before 1992
  • You'd rather test privately, without it going through insurance

When to Get Tested

Hepatitis C antibodies usually become detectable about 8–11 weeks after exposure, though it can take longer. If you test very early after a possible exposure and it's negative, retesting after a few months gives a more reliable answer.

Understanding Your Results

Results post to your secure online account, usually in 1–2 business days, in plain English. A negative antibody result means no HCV detected. A positive antibody triggers the reflex RNA test: a positive RNA confirms active infection, while a negative RNA suggests a past infection your body cleared. Active hepatitis C is now curable with modern treatment. Nothing appears on your insurance record.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this show up on my insurance?
No. You pay directly, nothing is billed to insurance, and nothing appears on your insurance record. Your results go only to your secure account — 100% confidential.
Is hepatitis C really curable?
Yes. Modern antiviral medications cure the large majority of hepatitis C cases, which is exactly why finding it early matters so much.
What does the reflex RNA test do?
If your antibody screen is positive, the lab automatically runs an HCV RNA test on the same sample to confirm whether the virus is still active or was cleared — no second visit needed.
How soon after exposure can I test?
Hepatitis C antibodies usually become detectable about 8–11 weeks after exposure. If you test very early and it's negative, retest after a few months to be sure.
