A clinic blood test measuring Hepatitis B 'e' antibody. Better2Know does not publish further detail on this specific listing beyond the marker it tests for.
1 biomarker as listed by Better2Know.
This test measures Hepatitis B 'e' antibody, the single marker Better2Know lists for it. The provider does not publish a description for this listing, so beyond the marker name, category and price there is little else from Better2Know to go on for what the result means or who most needs it.
In our Hepatitis B comparison group, this is the second most expensive option, behind only Better2Know's own £495 Hepatitis B Viral Load test. It costs £250 against a group median of £79.25, more than three times the price of Better2Know's own £70 home immunity and surface antigen kits and nearly six times LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor's £43 Hepatitis B immunity test.
The test scores well for measuring exactly what it sets out to and for publishing a clear biomarker list, sample type and turnaround, though it does not describe what the results report looks like. It scores poorly on price, and loses marks on results and follow-up because results are not doctor-reviewed as standard.
Better2Know does not explain who this specific test suits, beyond naming the marker it measures. If you want a more clearly explained Hepatitis B check, Better2Know's own £70 Hepatitis B Immunity Home Test Kit or £145 Hepatitis B Test set out their purpose in more detail and cost substantially less; LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor's £43 immunity test is cheaper still.
You provide a venous blood sample at a clinic appointment or during a home nurse visit; no at-home self-collection option is listed for this test. The sample is sent to Better2Know's laboratory, with results reported within 1 day of receipt. Results are not doctor-reviewed as standard.
This clinic test measures Hepatitis B 'e' antibody, and Better2Know publishes no further description of what the result means or who needs it. At £250, it is more expensive than every other test in our Hepatitis B group except Better2Know's own £495 Viral Load test. Results are not doctor-reviewed as standard.
The listing publishes the full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state a proper description, what the report looks like.
A single-marker test measuring exactly what it sets out to; depth is not the point of this comparison group.
Requires a venous draw at a clinic; a home nurse visit is offered; results in around 1 days, well ahead of the sexual health norm of 2.
Results are not doctor-reviewed and no consultation is included; the provider does not describe the report format.

Cheap, at-home Hepatitis B antigen test with fast results

Hepatitis B immunity check, pricier than LloydsPharmacy's
This test measures Hepatitis B Surface Antibody levels, used to check whether Hepatitis B vaccination has produced adequate immunity. It suits anyone who needs to confirm immune status, including for occupational health.
Below the group median, but not the cheapest antigen check
Checks for hepatitis B surface antigen, the marker used to detect a current infection, via a simple blood test. Suits anyone wanting to check for active hepatitis B after possible exposure.
Not the cheapest hepatitis B immunity check available
Checks for hepatitis B surface antibodies to confirm immunity from vaccination or past infection; it does not detect a current infection. Suits people who need proof of protection for work, travel or healthcare requirements.
Cheap single-marker Hepatitis B test, slower turnaround
This test looks for Hepatitis B Core Antibody IgM, a marker used to indicate a recent or current Hepatitis B infection. It suits anyone who has had a possible exposure and wants a single, focused marker checked.
Priciest Hepatitis B option in its comparison group
This test measures total Hepatitis B Core Antibody (IgG and IgM combined), helping distinguish a current infection from one that has resolved. It suits anyone wanting a fuller picture than a single IgM check gives.
Lowest-priced hepatitis B immunity check we track
