UC Davis Health Mobile Phlebotomy: Can You Have Your Blood Drawn at Home?

If your UC Davis Health provider has ordered laboratory testing, you may be wondering if you can have your blood drawn without traveling to a laboratory. Mobile phlebotomy offers a convenient option by bringing a trained phlebotomist directly to your home, allowing you to complete your laboratory testing in a comfortable and familiar setting.

UC Davis Health operates laboratory locations throughout Northern California. Depending on your provider, your medical needs, and your location, home blood draw services may not always be available. Patients with a valid laboratory order may choose an independent mobile phlebotomy service for specimen collection when appropriate.

What Is Mobile Phlebotomy?

Mobile phlebotomy is a professional healthcare service that brings laboratory specimen collection directly to your home, assisted living community, skilled nursing facility, workplace, or care facility. After your blood is collected, your specimens are transported to the appropriate laboratory for testing according to your healthcare provider’s instructions.
