What's Included
Hepatitis B Immunity
- Hepatitis B Surface Antibody (Quant): Measures your anti-HBs level to help determine if you need vaccination or have achieved protective immunity after a vaccination series.
MMR Immunity
- Measles Antibodies, IgG: Checks for antibodies indicating past infection or vaccination against measles.
- Mumps Antibodies, IgG: Checks for antibodies indicating past infection or vaccination against mumps.
- Rubella Antibodies, IgG: Checks for antibodies indicating past infection or vaccination against rubella.
Varicella Immunity
- Varicella Zoster IgG: Checks for antibodies indicating past infection or vaccination against chicken pox (VZV).
Benefits

FAQ
1. What is the purpose of this test?
This panel checks your antibody levels for Hepatitis B, MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), and Varicella to help confirm whether you're immune to these infections. It combines several antibody tests so you can review your immunity status for these common diseases together, based on either past infection or vaccination. This test does not diagnose any active illness on its own.
2. Who would benefit from this test?
This test may benefit individuals who need to confirm immunity for school, employment, or healthcare requirements, as well as those planning a pregnancy who want to check their Varicella status. It's also useful for anyone unsure whether past vaccinations provided lasting protection against these diseases.
3. When should I order this panel?
You might consider this panel if you're asked to provide proof of immunity for school or work, if you're preparing for pregnancy, or if you simply want to confirm your protection against Hepatitis B, MMR, or Varicella. It's also useful if your vaccination history is unclear or unavailable.
4. Do I need to fast before this test?
No special preparation is required for this test.
5. How quickly will I get results?
Results are typically available in 2-4 days, though this may take longer based on weather, holidays, or lab delays.
6. How do I interpret the results?
Your results reflect antibody (IgG) levels for each biomarker tested. Looking at the pattern across all the biomarkers, rather than a single result, often gives a clearer picture of your overall immunity status. A positive result usually reflects past infection or vaccination, though it cannot distinguish between past and current infection. Be sure to discuss your full results with your healthcare provider for proper interpretation.
Disclaimer: Reference ranges may vary by laboratory. Listed ranges are general guidelines and may differ from those used by the performing lab. Always consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.
7. What should I do if my results are abnormal?
If any of your results fall outside expected ranges, follow up with your doctor or healthcare provider. They can help interpret your results in the context of your health history and determine if further testing, vaccination, or other steps are appropriate.
8. How often should I get tested?
There is no set schedule for repeating this panel. How often you're tested should be determined as directed by your healthcare provider, based on your individual circumstances and any applicable requirements.
9. Why early detection matters
Confirming your immunity status early can help you understand whether you're protected against Hepatitis B, MMR, or Varicella, or whether additional vaccination may be worth discussing with your provider. This awareness can be especially helpful ahead of school, work, or pregnancy related requirements.
