We are upgrading the tests we offer to ensure we are offering the most accurate and insightful tests, following the current clinical best-practice and science. We are also ensuring our tests provide maximal coverage across Health Areas – something you will see us do much more of in the months ahead.
At the same time, some prices will be changing to accommodate these upgrades. Where possible, we have made this as minimal as possible. However, we have tried our best over recent years to absorb a number of cost increases but this is not something we can do forever so in some cases we have had to pass certain cost increases onto customers. We have aimed to always increase value along with cost increases.
The upgrades will be applied automatically during week commencing 21st August 2023.
