ApoB blood tests are relatively cheap. You can pay out of pocket about $70 if you really want one and insurance won't cover it.

Most commercial health plans will cover an ApoB test for members with certain cardiac risk factors or medical conditions. But they generally won't cover it as a preventive screening for all members. I don't think we have enough evidence to justify broad screening yet, although that may be coming.
