It is certainly possible to have certain tests carried out by your GP. What ‘free’ means, however, can vary. Traditional routes can often involve waiting times and multiple visits to the doctor, which can be especially challenging if you’re on a tight schedule or looking for quick answers to your health questions.
At Probatix, we are committed to offering you a more accessible and efficient alternative. Our goal is to give you access to your blood values in an uncomplicated way and without long waiting times. More importantly, we want you to be able to not only view your health data, but also understand and actively use it to manage your own health.
Our vision is to promote better and proactive healthcare in Germany, which not only facilitates the early detection of diseases, but also helps to relieve the burden on doctors’ surgeries by avoiding unnecessary visits. We believe that an informed approach to one’s own health data is key to long-term well-being and efficient healthcare.
Probatix is a pure software company and does not analyze samples. We work together with professional laboratories specializing in capillary blood. They carry out the analysis for us and we make the results available to our customers in a digital and comprehensible format.
There are different opinions among doctors on this topic. Some doctors are concerned that patients may have difficulties understanding and correctly interpreting their own blood values. They see the determination and interpretation of blood values as an area that should remain in the hands of doctors in order to avoid misunderstandings and false conclusions.
On the other hand, there are many doctors who recognize the benefits of easily accessible, digitally available and reliable blood tests. These doctors see that actively involving patients increases health awareness among the population. They value the low-threshold tests as a valuable addition to traditional blood tests and see that early detection can be improved and chronically ill patients can be treated better through such services.
It is important to speak to a doctor if the values are abnormal, as the actual treatment can only be carried out by doctors. Only they have the necessary knowledge and expertise to take the right therapeutic measures. The regular and validated laboratory tests from Probatix are very reliable, which means that duplicate tests are avoided. This enables doctors to start with a head start in terms of information, which increases the efficiency and accuracy of further medical care.
In addition, these tests can also be ordered by a doctor, creating a more comfortable patient experience. Patients can perform tests from the comfort of their own home or at a nearby Probatix partner with no waiting time. This reduces the need for frequent doctor visits and waiting times, while still ensuring professional monitoring and counseling. At the same time, doctors are relieved of routine tasks, giving them more time for individual patient care. The low-threshold service makes life easier for everyone involved. Together with doctors and other stakeholders in the healthcare system, we are creating a better, more efficient healthcare system for everyone. This development ultimately benefits everyone and contributes to improved healthcare.
Yes, Probatix blood tests are safe and reliable. Our tests are carried out under professional conditions. If there is a Probatix partner location near you, we recommend that you have your blood sample taken at one of our partner pharmacies. If you do not have a suitable location nearby, we offer you the option of ordering a home test kit and taking the sample yourself in the comfort of your own home. The analysis is then carried out in an accredited laboratory that specializes in capillary blood so that you receive medically reliable blood values.
In most cases, blood samples are taken by a professional Probatix partner, such as a pharmacy near you. If there is no partner location near you, you can order a home test kit and take the sample yourself at home in just a few minutes.
Unfortunately, our tests are not yet covered by health insurance companies. After the test, you will receive an invoice from us which you can submit to your health insurance company for reimbursement – it’s worth trying. We are working hard to ensure that our tests will soon be covered by health insurance companies.
You receive your results directly in your Probatix Health Portal. There you will also see simple explanations and time histories so that you can quickly recognize trends and changes and act accordingly.
Probatix differs from conventional home tests in that it offers professional and comprehensive support from sample collection to analysis. If you have a partner location near you, you can ideally have the sample collection carried out by one of our professional partners, such as a pharmacy. This ensures that the entire process – from collection to transportation to analysis – is carried out to the highest quality standards. We are working every day to expand this network.
If there is no partner location near you, you can alternatively have a home test kit sent to you and conveniently take the sample yourself. In either case, you benefit from the digital traceability of your test results. In contrast to a simple PDF that you would otherwise receive after a blood test, with Probatix you can view your results at any time and track them over longer periods of time. This allows you to continuously monitor your health and identify trends and changes.
The data at Probatix is protected according to the highest security standards. Probatix’s information security management system is also certified to ISO 27001 by TÜV Süd.
Short answer: No. If only because we are a software provider, while Theranos produces medical devices.
More detailed answer: With Probatix, we want to give people easier access to their own health data through our software. We act as an interface that connects users with qualified laboratories to have their blood values professionally analyzed. We then make the results available digitally. Our role is that of a software provider that promotes transparency and accessibility in the healthcare sector.
In contrast, Theranos was a company that developed medical devices and misled both patients and investors through deliberately false promises. The machine manufactured by Theranos never worked and the samples were in fact secretly analyzed on real laboratory equipment. The book“Bad Blood” by John Carreyrou is highly recommended if you want to find out more.
In the event of abnormal test results, we generally recommend consulting a doctor for further clarification. This will soon also be possible directly via the Probatix platform.
