Empirical Health vs Everlywell

What is Empirical Health, and what is Everlywell?

Empirical Health is a heart health company. Its $190 panel measures 100+ biomarkers in a single lab visit, and the app turns them into heart-disease risk scores.

Everlywell also sells single at-home test kits. Its Everlywell 360 membership is a yearly blood test across six health categories, paired with a Care Plan written from your results.

One is organized around a single organ system, the other around a broad annual snapshot. They part ways again at the prescription pad.

What does Empirical Health include?

The $190 panel includes one lab visit, 100+ biomarkers, in-app heart risk scores, and access to Empirical Pro.

Empirical describes its model as a three-step process:

1. Measure — Visit a testing site for the panel, which includes ApoB and Lp(a).
2. Predict — See your heart-disease risk estimated over 10 years and across a lifetime.
3. Prevent — Follow a nutrition and exercise plan, and log meals by photo.

Results come with a physician-interpreted report. The 12-month Advanced Heart Health program costs more and adds repeat testing at 3 and 9 months plus a video visit with a board-certified doctor. Supplements are not part of the offer.

What does Everlywell include?

Everlywell 360 costs $399 a year and includes one 83-biomarker lab test, a WellScore, and a clinician-reviewed Care Plan.

Everlywell lays its membership out in three steps:

1. Schedule lab tests — Pick a sample-collection slot at a partner lab near you.
2. Review your results — Read a dashboard view of your health alongside an analysis from clinicians.
3. Take action — Work through your Care Plan, and add a 1:1 consult if you want to talk it over.

The care team is made up of MDs, DOs, nurse practitioners, and genetic counselors. A 9 to 12 hour fast is required before the draw, and collection fees are covered by the purchase price. Everlywell+, a separate monthly plan, gives one credit a month toward an at-home test or a virtual visit.

What biomarkers do Empirical Health and Everlywell measure in 2026?

Empirical Health lists 100+ biomarkers and Everlywell 360 lists 83, though the two numbers are built differently. Beyond its 85 lab results, Empirical's 100 also counts two heart-attack risk estimates, nine intake metrics, and four app scores.

Everlywell's own count tallies each white-cell differential entry once. Counting percentages and absolute values apart, its list reads 87 to 88 lab biomarkers, and both lists include urinalysis.

On lab results alone, the two panels sit close together. Everlywell's six categories reach into nutrition, hormones, and immune markers, while Empirical's list leans toward heart and metabolic risk.

Each company sells more than its base test:

• Empirical Health — The Advanced Heart Health program adds the follow-up draws and the doctor visit.
• Everlywell — A 360 + Consult tier adds a 1:1 provider meeting, and single kits such as the HbA1c Test run $49.

What are the official 2026 membership prices for Empirical Health and Everlywell?

Empirical Health charges $190 once for the panel, while Everlywell 360 charges $399 a year, billed annually.

Empirical's Advanced program also runs $399. At that price, Empirical gives you repeat draws and a doctor visit, and Everlywell gives you one draw and a Care Plan.

Members in New York and New Jersey pay Empirical a $99 lab fee on top, for $289 in all. Everlywell+ is a separate $39 monthly plan. Both companies' tests are HSA/FSA eligible.

How do prescriptions work at Empirical Health and Everlywell?

At both companies, a prescription comes out of a clinician visit that sits outside the base test price.

Empirical's video visit with a board-certified doctor belongs to the Advanced program, and it covers your results, a care plan, and any prescriptions or referrals you may need.

Everlywell 360 on its own stops at results and a Care Plan. Prescribing happens through the 360 + Consult tier or Everlywell+ virtual visits, and when medically appropriate, a clinician can prescribe during the consultation. Prescriptions and extra labs are billed beyond the membership.

How do the two turn results into guidance?

Empirical Health sends a physician-interpreted report, and most results arrive in 3 to 5 business days. The full set can take two to three weeks to stream in. Members can message doctors in the app.

Everlywell returns most results within 9 days of lab work, then readies the Care Plan within 24 hours of that. The plan names personalized recommendations for out-of-range biomarkers.

The speeds are close, so the real choice is the format: a report you can take to a clinician visit, or a plan that arrives ready-made.

How do biological age and supplements compare?

Everlywell 360 includes a WellScore, a single number from 50 to 100 that compares biological and chronological age using nine biomarkers. Empirical Health does not offer a biological age score, since it focuses on cardiovascular health rather than longevity.

Everlywell also stocks its own vitamins, including a $20 Vitamin D3, and subscribers get 20% off. Its supplement pages read HSA/FSA ineligible. Empirical has no supplement store.

Where are Empirical Health and Everlywell tests available?

Both run draws at partner labs, 2,000+ of them. Empirical's draws happen at a national lab network, or at a regional partner lab in New York and New Jersey, and its medical services are available in over 30 states.

Everlywell 360 is not offered in Arizona, Alaska, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, or Rhode Island.

Who is Empirical Health best for, and who is Everlywell best for?

Empirical Health is best for:

• People whose main concern is heart disease and who want Lp(a) and ApoB on the panel.
• People who want a one-time $190 purchase instead of a yearly membership.
• People who want repeat testing and a doctor visit for prescriptions in one program.

Everlywell is best for:

• People who want a broader annual test spanning six health categories.
• People who want a WellScore and a Care Plan within 24 hours of results.
• People who want to buy supplements from the same site.

The bottom line

The two answer different questions. Empirical is a heart-focused panel with a doctor visit one tier up, and Everlywell is a yearly broad test with a Care Plan attached. The fit depends on whether your worry is your heart or your whole body.

Both base products end once the report is read. Empirical's $190 stops at a physician-interpreted report, with its doctor visit held for the $399 program, and Everlywell's $399 stops at a Care Plan, with prescriptions and extra labs billed on top.
