Checks liver health with seven markers covering liver enzymes, bilirubin and key proteins. Suits people wanting to monitor how lifestyle factors such as alcohol or weight may be affecting their liver, including tracking changes over time.
7 biomarkers as listed by Medichecks.
This test covers seven markers connected to liver health: ALP, ALT, bilirubin and Gamma GT, which are commonly used to spot signs of liver strain or damage, alongside albumin, globulin and total protein, which reflect the liver's role in producing proteins for the body. Together these markers are often used to build a picture of liver function and to track how lifestyle factors such as alcohol intake or weight may be affecting it over time.
Within its comparison group of liver function tests, this is the cheapest of the four we track: Medichecks prices it at £39, against £41 for YorkTest, £45.25 for Blue Horizon Medicals and £48.60 for Thriva, with all four testing the same seven markers. Medichecks also sells a pricier eight-marker version of this test, the Liver with Hyaluronic Acid Blood Test, at £199, which adds a marker for liver fibrosis.
The scores reflect a well-priced, convenient test that matches its group on depth. Clinical depth is solid, with seven biomarkers matching the group median exactly. Value for money scores well, priced around 14% below the group median of £45.25, and collection convenience scores the maximum, since it can be done at home as well as via a venous draw, with results within two days.
This suits people who want a straightforward, low-cost check on liver health, including anyone monitoring how alcohol intake, weight or other lifestyle factors may be affecting their liver, or who wants to track results over time. The at-home finger-prick option makes repeat testing easy.
This is already the cheapest named option in its comparison group, with YorkTest, Blue Horizon Medicals and Thriva all pricing the same seven-marker panel higher, at £41, £45.25 and £48.60 respectively. If you specifically want to check for liver fibrosis markers as well, Medichecks' own Liver with Hyaluronic Acid Blood Test adds that at a higher price of £199, though it requires a clinic visit rather than an at-home sample.
You can collect your own sample at home with a finger-prick kit, or choose a venous draw at a clinic or a home nurse visit. Once the sample reaches the lab, results are typically ready within two days, and every result is reviewed by a doctor as standard.
Seven liver-related markers, including liver enzymes, bilirubin and key proteins, make up this £39 test, which can be done with an at-home finger-prick. It is the cheapest of the four tests in its comparison group, undercutting YorkTest at £41, Blue Horizon Medicals at £45.25 and Thriva at £48.60, all of which test the same seven markers. The main limitation is scope: it does not include hyaluronic acid, which Medichecks' own pricier version adds.
