How to prepare for a blood test?

1. It is recommended that blood be given in the morning until 12 noon, preferably from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. It is important to be awake 1 hour earlier to fully wake up the body.

2. It is recommended to fast for 8-12 hours before the procedure. The day before the blood is given, you can eat and drink normally, but it is advisable to avoid particularly fatty, sweet and spicy foods and alcohol in the evening before the blood tests, as they may affect the quality of the blood sample in the morning.

3. Do not eat or drink coffee or tea in the morning before a blood test. Non-carbonated water without sweeteners will not affect the test results. In addition, chewing gum should not be chewed before or during the blood donation procedure.

4. It is recommended to avoid medications and food supplements as much as possible for 3 days before testing. If you are unable not to take certain medicines, tell the person taking the blood.

5. The hand from which the blood was taken must not be used to lift heavy objects or exercise for a couple of hours. This helps to reduce the chance of a hematoma or bruising after the procedure.

I have private health insurance paid for by the company. How does it work?

For the insurance to compensate for blood tests, it is recommended to contact the insurance company to find out what the insurance plan you have (they will pay half or all price of the tests) and the balance of the money. After registering on the VOW Health platform and completing the blood test you will receive an invoice by e-mail, which will need to be submitted to the insurance company. Also, invoices are always visible in your profile.

Many insurance companies have systems that allow you to view insurance data and manage invoices by yourself.
