CeliacDx offers At-home testing t for your convenience.
CeliacDx accepts FSA/HSA and is covered by most insurance plans.
According to the Celiac Disease Foundation, it takes an average of 6-10 years to establish an accurate celiac disease diagnosis.
How Does CeliacDx Work?
Most individuals with unresolved celiac disease diagnosis have previously had antibody and/or small bowel biopsy testing but no GENETIC testing.
At CeliacDx we use GENETIC testing as a TIE-BREAKER test to render an UNEQUIVOCAL celiac diagnosis. Just send us your previous antibody and biopsy laboratory testing reports along with an at-home collected cheek sample for GENETICS and we’ll do the rest.
Why Is Genetics a tie-breaker test?
The underlying cause of Celiac disease is rooted in one’s genetic makeup. Without the presence of genes associated with celiac disease, an individual cannot develop the condition. However, having the relevant genes indicates a susceptibility to potentially developing the disease. It is important to note that a definitive diagnosis is often based on the 4/5 rule, which considers various factors to confirm the presence of the disease.
FOUR out of FIVE RULE
4/5 of five criteria below must be met for diagnosis
- Celiac Disease symptoms are present.
- Antibody testing is positive.
- Small bowel biopsy is positive.
- Celiac genetic risk genes are positive.
- Symptoms resolve on a gluten free diet.
Have questions about CeliacDx at-home testing for Celiac Disease?
Celiac disease is curable with an accurate diagnosis and lifelong gluten-free diet.
Yet according to the Celiac Disease Foundation an accurate celiac disease diagnosis is delayed on average by 6 to 10 years. Delayed diagnosis often leads to worsening conditions. CeliacDx can help significantly reduce the time to diagnosis by combining the three gold standard tests into a comprehensive report designed to give an unequivocal POSTIVE or NEGATIVE diagnosis for every patient.
For a patient with celiac disease symptoms, positive family history, negative antibody test results and positive biopsy, use CeliacDx for resolution of positive versus negative celiac disease diagnosis.
- Collect cheek swab samples and send to the lab along with previous antibody and biopsy test results using the CeliacDx kit box and pre-paid mailing label.
- The laboratory will perform HLA-DQ2/DQ8 genetic testing.
- Our pathologists will interpret all test results (Antibodies, Biopsy, Genetics) in the context of the patient’s reported symptoms, dietary gluten, and family history to issuing a POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE comprehensive report for celiac disease.
- Insurance will only be billed for the pathology consultation and testing performed by the laboratory.
