About this test
What this test measures
In the United States, nearly half of all adults are living with some type of cardiovascular disease.¹ Regularly monitoring your cardiovascular markers can help you understand your risk and adapt your lifestyle to prevent cardiovascular and heart disease.
This test evaluates three crucial markers that are linked to cardiovascular disease risk:
- Apolipoprotein B: This protein is responsible for carrying fat and cholesterol throughout your body. Higher levels may point to an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
- Apolipoprotein A1: This protein helps your body manage cholesterol levels. Lower levels can indicate an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Apolipoprotein B:Apolipoprotein A1 ratio: The balance of these two proteins is critical in assessing your cardiovascular disease risk.
- Lipoprotein (a) - A form of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) that helps carry fat and cholesterol through your body. Elevated levels may indicate a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Who should take this test
The Cardiac Risk Apo A+B Test is particularly useful for those who wish to monitor their heart health and assess their risk of cardiovascular disease, preventatively. It is recommended for men aged 45 and above, women aged 55 and above, and individuals who have a lifestyle or family history that puts them at risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Keep in mind that cardiovascular disease does not always manifest noticeable signs and symptoms, so preventative testing can be crucial in maintaining heart health.
You must be age 18 or older to take this test. Due to state restrictions, this test is not available to residents of New York.

Will my insurance cover the cost of the test?
Cue test kits are not currently covered by insurance, but we are actively working with health insurance companies to get coverage for Cue Health solutions. (Please note, Cue COVID-19 tests are covered by insurance. Check with your provider for details.) However, many Cue test kits are FSA/HSA eligible, which means that your health benefits may cover them. We recommend connecting with your insurance provider directly to inquire about their policies and your plan. We work hard to keep our pricing accessible, and in most cases, the price of a Cue test is comparable to the out-of-pocket costs for testing in a clinical setting.
