A single-marker blood test that checks whether you have immunity to hepatitis B following vaccination, not a test for a current infection.
1 biomarker as listed by LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor.
This test measures hepatitis B surface antibodies (anti-HBs), which indicate immunity to hepatitis B, typically built up after a course of vaccination or a booster. The provider states it is not a test for a current hepatitis B infection, and recommends testing at least 4 weeks after completing a vaccination course or booster.
Against the 8 tests we track in the hepatitis B test group, this is priced well below the £79.25 top of the range, at £43, though the group mixes immunity tests with tests for different markers, such as Blue Horizon Medicals' Core Antibody IgM and Surface Antigen tests, so not every peer is checking for the same thing.
The score is helped by strong value for money and reasonable clarity and documentation, reflecting the shorter but clear description. It loses marks on results and follow-up, since results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard; clinical depth is scored on the basis that a single, focused marker is what this comparison group is about.
This suits people who have completed a hepatitis B vaccination course or booster and want to confirm their antibody response, rather than check for a current infection. It is not suitable if you are concerned you currently have hepatitis B.
If you specifically want a surface antibody immunity test from another provider, Blue Horizon Medicals' Hepatitis B Surface Antibody (Immunity Test) is priced at £54.25 and Medichecks' Hepatitis B Immunity Blood Test at £59, both more than this one.
You collect a finger-prick blood sample at home, at least 4 weeks after completing a hepatitis B vaccination course or booster, then post it to the lab. Results are normally available within 2 to 3 working days. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, though the provider says its clinicians can advise if you are unsure whether you need vaccination or an immunity test.
This test checks for hepatitis B surface antibodies to establish immunity following vaccination, priced at £43. That is well below the £79.25 highest price across the 8 comparable hepatitis B tests we track, though some of those check for different markers, such as current infection, rather than immunity. As with this provider's other infection kits, results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard.
The listing publishes a short description, the full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state 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.
A finger-prick sample you take at home; results in around 3 days, in line with or faster than similar tests.
Results are not doctor-reviewed and no consultation is included; the provider does not describe the report format.

This test belongs to our Hepatitis B test comparison group. See how it stacks up against equivalent tests from other providers.
Cheap, at-home Hepatitis B antigen test with fast results
This test checks for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen, which shows whether you have been infected with Hepatitis B within the past few weeks. It suits anyone wanting a fast, at-home check after a possible exposure.
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.
Home infection check, also available via clinic for £145
An at-home finger-prick blood test for Hepatitis B surface antigen, used to check for a current Hepatitis B infection. Suited to people who may have been exposed and want to test after the stated incubation window.
Below-average price for a Hepatitis B immunity check
An at-home finger-prick blood test that checks whether you are immune to Hepatitis B, either through vaccination or past infection. Suited to people who want to confirm their immunity without a clinic visit.
Same single marker as Medichecks' £55 test, priced at £189
Checks for hepatitis B surface antigen, the marker used to indicate current infection. It measures one biomarker despite the Profile name, so it suits situations calling for that specific antigen check rather than a broader panel.
Same infection check, twice the price of the home kit
A clinic blood test for Hepatitis B surface antigen, used to check for a current Hepatitis B infection following possible blood-to-blood exposure. Suited to people who would rather use a clinic than a home kit.
Priced well above every peer in its Hepatitis B group
A blood test for Hepatitis B core antibodies, showing whether you have ever had the infection, though not when you were exposed.
Most expensive test in its Hepatitis B comparison group
A single blood test checking for Hepatitis B core antibodies, which show whether you have ever been infected, without indicating when.
Immunity check, pricier than Better2Know's own home kit
A clinic blood test that checks whether you are immune to Hepatitis B, either from vaccination or a past infection. Suited to people needing to confirm their immunity status, including some at-risk professions.
Costliest single hepatitis B check against its peers
A single-marker blood test for hepatitis B, giving a same-day result at the clinic, for anyone who wants a quick check of this one infection.
Second-priciest test in the Hepatitis B range
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.
Monitoring test for known Hepatitis B, not a first screen
A clinic blood test measuring the amount of Hepatitis B virus in the blood, used to monitor people with a known chronic Hepatitis B infection. Suited to those already diagnosed, rather than as a first check.
Cheap, at-home Hepatitis B antigen test with fast results
This test checks for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen, which shows whether you have been infected with Hepatitis B within the past few weeks. It suits anyone wanting a fast, at-home check after a possible exposure.
