What this test is

The Hepatitis A, B & C Test Panel is a blood test that looks for specific markers, called antibodies and antigens, in your blood. These markers can indicate whether you have been exposed to or are currently infected with the Hepatitis A, B, or C viruses.

What it measures

  • Hepatitis A antibody — indicates past infection or vaccination for Hepatitis A
  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) — indicates current Hepatitis B infection
  • Hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) — indicates immunity to Hepatitis B from past infection or vaccination
  • Hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) — indicates past or current Hepatitis B infection
  • Hepatitis C antibody (anti-HCV) — indicates past or current infection with Hepatitis C

What the test involves

This test requires a standard blood draw from a vein in your arm. A healthcare professional will collect the sample and send it to a laboratory for analysis.

Why it is often ordered

Clinicians often order this panel to diagnose acute or chronic hepatitis infections or to check for immunity after vaccination. It helps determine the specific type of hepatitis virus someone may have been exposed to.

Preparation

No special preparation is typically required for this test. However, you should always follow any specific instructions provided by the laboratory where your blood will be drawn.

How results are reported

Results are usually available within a few business days and will indicate the presence or absence of markers for each type of hepatitis. Reference ranges, which help interpret the results, can vary between laboratories.
