Important: These are cost estimates only — not a quote and not medical advice.
The prices on this page are self-pay rates, drawn from federal Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files (CPT 36415 — Collection of venous blood by venipuncture). They represent what a patient might pay without insurance.
Your actual cost depends on: your specific insurance plan, your remaining deductible, your coinsurance percentage, whether you have met your out-of-pocket maximum, whether the facility and provider are both in-network, and any separate anesthesia or implant fees billed independently.
This page does not constitute medical advice. Whether you need this procedure, and which approach is right for you, is a decision to make with a licensed healthcare provider.

How to read this data
Negotiated Rate
The discounted price an insurer has agreed to pay a specific provider. Most insured patients' bills are calculated from this number, not the higher list price hospitals publish separately.
P5, Median, P95
P5 is the rate at the 5th percentile (low end), Median is the middle value, and P95 is the 95th percentile (high end). This range shows how much the same visit can vary between providers.
What this does not tell you
These rates do not tell you what you personally will pay out of pocket. That depends on your specific plan, how much of your deductible you have already met, your coinsurance rate, and whether the provider is in your network. Call your insurer's member line to get your exact estimate.
Why Blood Draw Visit Costs Vary Across New Hampshire
Healthcare costs in New Hampshire run approximately 11% above national averages, driven by the state's small market size and geographic challenges that limit provider competition. The Granite State's unique position as a border state creates cross-state healthcare utilization patterns, particularly in the Seacoast region where patients may seek care in Massachusetts.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Manchester and Nashua benefit from concentrated provider networks and multiple lab facilities, creating competitive pricing for Blood Draw services. Rural areas in Coos County and the North Country face limited options, often requiring patients to travel significant distances to major medical centers like Dartmouth-Hitchcock. This geographic disparity contributes to higher costs and longer wait times in underserved regions.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-based outpatient labs at facilities like Catholic Medical Center and Elliot Hospital typically charge higher rates due to facility fees and administrative overhead. Independent labs and physician office-based collection sites often provide more competitive pricing for routine Blood Draw services. The state's dominant health systems maintain significant market presence, influencing overall pricing structures across different facility types.
Insurance Market Competition in New Hampshire
The state's insurance market features moderate competition among Anthem, Harvard Pilgrim, and Cigna, though the small population base limits negotiating leverage with providers. This concentrated market structure can result in less aggressive rate negotiations compared to larger states with more diverse payer mixes. Regional insurers and self-insured employer plans add some competitive pressure but represent smaller market shares.
Physician Supply and Demand in New Hampshire
With over 3,700 active Blood Draw providers serving a population of 1.4 million residents, New Hampshire maintains adequate supply for routine laboratory services. This provider density varies significantly by region, with the I-93 corridor from Manchester to Concord offering the most options while northern and western counties face provider shortages. The adequate overall supply helps moderate pricing pressure compared to states with severe provider shortages.
