Hospital hosting two September Check-Up Days

Parkview Huntington Hospital (PHH) and the Parkview Center for Healthy Living are teaming up to offer two Check-Up Day events in September. These events make it convenient to obtain common lab tests at a reduced cost.

Check-Up Day will take place in PHH’s Wellness Classrooms on Saturday, September 17, and Wednesday, September 28, from 7 to 9:30 a.m. each day. To access the Wellness Classrooms, guests should use the main hospital entrance, turn right at the information desk, pass the entrance to the Holly D. Sale Rehab and Wellness Center and enter the first door in the hallway connecting the hospital to the Medical Office Building.

Changes have been made to test packages and pricing for 2022. Fasting is not required for these single tests: glycohemoglobin A1C ($30) and thyroid stimulating hormone, known as TSH ($35).

Wellness packages have been simplified from the past. Instead of packages A, B, C and D, participants can now choose from the customizable Green Package and the deluxe Diamond Package.

The Green Package includes a lipid profile and glycohemoglobin A1C for $50. In addition, participants can opt to add any of these tests onto the Green Package: comprehensive metabolic profile (CMP), $25; complete blood count (CBC), $15; thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), $30; prostate specific antigen (PSA, for men), $30; and vitamin D, $40.

The Diamond Package consists of the basic Green Package plus the CMP, CBC, TSH and PSA for a total cost of $115. Those who wish to purchase a Diamond Package without the PSA may do so for $100.

The vitamin D test can be added to either Diamond Package for a fee of $40.

Anyone selecting a wellness package must fast for 10 to 12 hours before their appointment. During fasting, sips of water and regular medications as prescribed are OK. Questions may be directed to (260) 266-6500.

This is an appointment-only event; walk-ins cannot be accepted. Participants must pre-register by calling (260) 266-6500. Callers should leave a message including their name and phone number if a Parkview Center for Healthy Living team member is not available at the time of the call. Payment by credit card at the time of pre-registration is required.
