Haemoglobin (Hb) electrophoresis is a blood test that separates and measures the types of haemoglobin to screen for thalassaemia and other haemoglobin variants. It is often used in premarital and preconception screening.
This add-on is best booked alongside a screening package, so your results are looked at together. Not sure if it’s already included in your package of choice? Check with us on the day of your appointment, or WhatsApp us to enquire now.
If your question isn’t answered here, WhatsApp us — our team will tell you honestly whether this add-on is right for you.
Yes, you can. Do note that a consultation with our doctor is required for any test booked outside a screening package — so if you are doing this as a standalone test for other medical reasons, a consultation fee applies on top of the standalone price.
Your results are emailed to you. If this test is bundled with a screening package, the findings are included in your full health screening report, which is also sent by email.
That depends on your age, symptoms, family history and what your chosen package already covers. You may WhatsApp us to enquire about suitability. If your question is medical in nature — for example, whether it is medically necessary for you to undergo this test — we encourage you to discuss it further with our doctor by booking a consultation.
Screening add-ons are generally not Medisave-claimable, though some corporate and insurance plans do reimburse them. Check with your insurer, and we will provide an itemised invoice for your claim.
