Many health conditions develop silently, without noticeable symptoms in their early stages. The Basic Health Panel is a laboratory screening that evaluates how well your vital organs and systems are functioning, helping identify potential health concerns before they become serious.
By detecting early changes in cholesterol, metabolism, kidney function, and more, this panel allows you and your healthcare provider to take informed, preventive action to protect your long-term health.
The Basic Health Panel is a set of essential blood and urine tests designed to provide a broad overview of your internal health. It evaluates key markers related to:
For example, elevated cholesterol levels may indicate an increased risk for cardiovascular disease, while abnormal liver enzymes can signal early liver stress—often before symptoms appear.
1. Lipid and Cholesterol Panel
This test measures total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These markers are used to assess heart and blood vessel health and help determine your risk for developing conditions such as heart disease and stroke.
2. Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP)

This makes the panel an effective foundational screening for overall health monitoring.
Chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease, and liver disease often develop gradually and without early symptoms. The Basic Health Panel helps:
For example, elevated protein levels or liver enzymes may suggest early liver disease, allowing for timely intervention before irreversible damage occurs.
The Basic Health Panel is recommended for:
Most healthcare providers recommend this panel once per year to track changes and detect potential health risks early.
