Cash, checks and credit cards are accepted; Delta Health will not be able to bill insurance companies. Fasting for 12 hours is required for all health screens requiring blood draws. Participants are encouraged to drink plenty of water, one cup of black coffee is permitted, and medications can be taken as usual.
Many participants will opt-in for their results to be sent to the Quality Health Network (QHN) where their Primary Care Provider will have access to the results and be able to review them with their providers at their next appointment.
Delta Health is excited to host this annual health event in multiple locations for the community. It is a chance for community members to receive comprehensive lab work at a potentially lower cost.
“We are excited to again invite the community to our annual blood draws and health fair," said Jacqueline Davis, Director of Marketing and Communications for Delta Health. “Getting an annual blood draw is important because it helps catch any health problems early at a discounted price. It's also a simple way to check in on how your body is doing each year.”

“This event is about helping our community stay healthy and learning how to be proactive with our health.” said Davis.
