About this test

This test combines three markers: HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies plus P24 antigen, hepatitis C antibodies, and hepatitis B surface antigen. Together these give a combined screen for three blood-borne viruses from a single sample, useful when you want to check more than one infection at once rather than ordering separate single-virus tests.

This test does not sit within one of our defined comparison groups, so there is no set of directly equivalent combined panels in our data to measure its price or depth against. Medichecks does sell narrower single-virus tests, such as its separate Hepatitis C Blood Test and Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Blood Test, for anyone who only needs one of these checked.

The scores reflect this well. Clinical depth sits in the upper range for sexual health tests we track, reflecting its three-marker scope. Value for money scores well, since the price sits well below the typical similarly sized sexual health test. Collection convenience scores at the very top of the scale, since it can be done at home, in a clinic, or with a nurse visit, with results back in around two days, faster than most other tests in this range. Trust signals score highly, reflecting Medichecks' Trustpilot rating of 4.5, its UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs, and doctor review included with every result.

Who is it for?

This suits you if you want a combined check across HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C from one blood sample, for example for routine sexual health screening or workplace requirements, and want a fast, two-day turnaround.

This test is not the right choice if you may have been exposed to HIV or hepatitis very recently: the provider advises attending A&E as soon as possible, and within 72 hours of exposure, for consideration of post-exposure prophylaxis or a hepatitis B vaccination. If you have symptoms, it recommends seeing your GP or attending A&E if you are very unwell.

How it works

This is a blood test that can be collected at home with a finger-prick kit, at an in-store clinic, via a home nurse visit, or as a venous draw at a clinic. Results are reviewed by a doctor before being released, with results back in around two days.

Pros & cons

  • Priced below the typical similarly sized sexual health test we track.
  • Doctor review is included with the result.

Cons

  • Not suitable for recent exposure: the provider advises A&E within 72 hours instead of this test.
  • Provider does not state what the results report looks like.

Our editorial score

Compare Health Test Score Three-virus screen with a two-day turnaround
Editorial confidence: 10.0/10

Combining HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C screening into three markers from one blood sample, this £99 test returns results in around two days. We do not hold comparable combined panels in our data to benchmark the price against directly. Its most important caveat is timing: if you may have been exposed recently, the provider advises attending A&E within 72 hours for possible post-exposure prophylaxis rather than waiting on this test.
