About Allergy Testing

Allergy skin testing involves placing small amounts of allergens on or under the skin to identify what substances trigger allergic reactions. It can test for environmental allergies (pollen, dust, mold, pet dander), food allergies, and insect venom allergies. Results are available within 15-20 minutes.

Understanding Your Bill

Allergy testing is billed per allergen tested. Testing 20-40 allergens is common, and the total cost scales with the number of tests. Blood allergy testing (IgE) is an alternative billed differently.

How to Save on Your Allergy Testing

Compare Cash Prices

Cash prices can be 50-80% lower than insurance rates. Always ask for the self-pay price before booking.

Consider Imaging Centers

Freestanding imaging centers often charge much less than hospitals for the same exact scan or procedure.

Submit to Insurance

Even if you pay cash, submit a claim. It still counts toward your deductible and out-of-pocket maximum.
