Vively vs iMedical: which blood test service suits you?

iMedical sells single blood tests and panels online, from single markers such as a full blood count ($22) and vitamin D ($33), plus a $19 fee if you buy single tests without a panel, to its Check Up panels ($79, $196 and $496 for Check Up ULTRA), as listed on 20 October 2026. You pay per test with no membership, and results usually arrive by email within 24 to 48 hours.

It depends on what you buy. Single tests at iMedical start at about $20 (plus a $19 fee if you buy single tests without a panel), which is cheaper if you only want one or two markers. Its broadest panel, Check Up ULTRA, is $496. Vively is $99 for the 70+ marker Baseline Health Check and first month of membership, then $99 a month. These are different services, so the starting prices are not a like-for-like comparison.

Each test or panel has its own price. On 20 October 2026, Check Up was $79, Check Up Advanced $196 and Check Up ULTRA $496. Single tests included a full blood count for $22 and vitamin D for $33, plus a $19 fee if you buy single tests without a panel. A doctor consult is $49 extra.

iMedical sends your results by email and SMS. If you want a doctor to talk them through, a 15-minute phone consult costs $49. Vively membership includes a one-to-one results consultation with a dietitian, a personalised nutrition and lifestyle plan and ongoing in-app practitioner messaging.

iMedical says most results arrive within about 24 to 48 hours. Vively results appear in the app within a few days.

Yes. You can cancel through the app or contact support to stop future renewals. Access continues until the end of your paid period. Cancellation does not automatically refund the current period; your Australian Consumer Law rights still apply. Read the terms.

Membership includes eligibility to request a further Baseline referral. Your previous test must be completed, at least three calendar months must have passed since your previous referral was arranged, and you must have accrued 90 days of active membership since that referral. Time while cancelled does not count. A doctor decides whether testing is appropriate and which tests to request. There is no guaranteed blood draw on day 90. See section 6.1D of the membership terms.

Eligible doctor-requested pathology may be covered by Medicare. Vively’s membership fee is separate and is not covered by Medicare. Private add-ons can have separate fees. Check your eligibility and charges before joining. iMedical tests are private and not covered by Medicare.

No. Vively’s dietitians provide nutrition and lifestyle support. Doctors review test requests, but your GP remains responsible for diagnosis, treatment and prescriptions. See your GP about new or persistent symptoms.
