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 Wyoming
Wyoming's Blood Draw costs run approximately 75% below the national average, reflecting the state's lower healthcare overhead costs and limited urban density. The Equality State's sparse population distribution creates unique market dynamics where rural areas may have limited competition but also lower operational costs.
Urban vs. Rural Provider Availability
Wyoming's two major population centers, Cheyenne and Casper, concentrate most specialized lab facilities and hospital-based services. Rural counties often rely on critical access hospitals or traveling phlebotomy services, which can create scheduling challenges but may offer competitive pricing. The 400+ mile distance between some communities means patients sometimes travel significant distances for routine lab work.
Facility Type and Overhead Costs
Hospital-based outpatient labs in Wyoming typically charge higher facility fees compared to independent clinics, reflecting higher operational overhead in acute care settings. Major health systems like Banner Health and Cheyenne Regional Medical Center operate extensive lab networks throughout the state. Standalone labs and retail clinics often provide the most cost-effective options for routine blood draws.
Insurance Market Competition in Wyoming
Wyoming's insurance landscape features moderate competition with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming holding significant market share alongside UnitedHealthcare and Cigna. This concentrated market allows insurers to negotiate competitive rates with the state's limited provider network. The relatively small number of major players can sometimes limit patient choice but helps standardize pricing across regions.
Physician Supply and Demand in Wyoming
With 188 active Blood Draw providers serving Wyoming's 580,000 residents, the state maintains adequate capacity for routine venipuncture services. This supply-demand balance helps keep costs reasonable compared to markets with severe provider shortages. Most providers can accommodate same-day or next-day appointments for standard blood work, reducing the premium pricing seen in supply-constrained markets.
