Same Quest network. Same à la carte freedom. The difference is whether your results stay as PDFs in your inbox — or become a dashboard, a timeline, and a plan.
JasonHealth
JasonHealth-style ordering is lean and self-directed. Vitals Vault adds proven panels, custom panel building, uploaded records, and lab interpretation in one workflow.
VitalsVaultSame Quest network. Individual tests from $14.99 — often cheaper than the marketplace floor on common labs. Or one-and-done panels: 120 tests for $99 · 140 for $199 · 160 for $399. Every order plugs into a 90-page Functional Health Report, lab test timeline, past-PDF uploads, and PocketMD chat — so the result becomes a decision, not another file.
Same gold-standard outcome. Your data. Your privacy. Always.
The flexibility of a lab marketplace. The intelligence of a health platform.
Use Vitals Vault the way you would use JasonHealth, Ulta Lab Tests, or OwnYourLabs: search for specific labs, build your own panel, and order individual tests starting at $14.99.
Or skip the guesswork and start with a complete baseline: 120 lab tests for $99, 140 for $199, or 160 for $399.
The difference is what happens after the blood draw. Vitals Vault turns your results into a connected health experience with a 90-page functional report, longitudinal timeline, uploads, action plan, and PocketMD chat to help you understand your numbers and decide what to do next.

A PDF shows values. Vitals Vault shows movement.
Use a proven panel or build fully custom, then track lab test movement over time with standard ranges, functional ranges, calculated ratios, downloadable reports, and guidance you can discuss with a clinician.
What the marketplace cannot show you
Your labs should remember what changed between draws.
Marketplaces give you disconnected PDFs. Vitals Vault connects each result to the protocols, supplements, medications, training blocks, nutrition changes, symptoms, uploads, and retests that happened in between.
- 1
Context
Attach protocols, symptoms, uploads, and lifestyle notes to the exact lab test they may affect.
- 2
Response
Review whether the next draw improved, stalled, overcorrected, or exposed a different bottleneck.

Turn the retest into a concrete next step instead of another file to interpret alone.

The miss
Ferritin 28 ng/mL
Your marketplace cart calls 28 "in range." But low-normal ferritin still drives fatigue, slower recovery, heavier cycles, and thinning hair — symptoms standard ranges miss.
Week 1
The plan
Iron + cofactors plan
Dose, timing, B12, folate, vitamin C, and food pairing attach to your ferritin — not a separate note. A protocol you can follow, not a number to Google.
Weeks 1 – 24
The why
Sleep, training, symptoms
When the line moves, you'll know whether it was the dose, the rest week, the lighter cycle, or all three. Marketplaces give you a number with no story.
Week 24
The win
Ferritin 72 ng/mL
And you know exactly why. Interpreted against your CBC, iron saturation, inflammation, and symptoms — so the result counts as evidence, not just another value.

Hold the dose, look at absorption, check inflammation, or schedule the next draw — built from your timeline, not a guess on a single number. The part the marketplace never sold you.
Five reasons JasonHealth shoppers switch after their first cart.
A direct-access marketplace can be useful when you know exactly which single test to buy. Vitals Vault is built for shoppers who want the lab order, report, trends, and next steps in one place.
Control without guesswork
Use a proven 120-, 140-, or 160-test panel when you want the best default, or build fully custom when you already know the exact tests you want.
Interpretation included
Standard ranges, functional ranges, ratios, trends, and plain-language guidance are part of the workflow.
Programs tied to lab movement
Track lab test changes alongside protocols, lifestyle changes, retests, and past uploads instead of guessing whether a program worked from scattered PDFs.
Dashboard lab ordering
Search panels, use categories and recommendations, add tests to cart, and run custom add-on or retest orders from the member dashboard.
No subscription required
Use one-time checkout for bundled panels and custom testing instead of committing to an annual program.

WHEN JASONHEALTH MAY MAKE SENSE
If you explicitly want the leanest single-marker transaction and do not need interpretation, JasonHealth may be the simpler path.
But choose Vitals Vault when
Vitals Vault is stronger when you want proven bundles, marketplace-style custom ordering, member pricing, uploaded records, lab test timelines, downloadable reports, action plans, PocketMD, and repeatable lab testing.
Your lab PDF ends at the number. Your dashboard begins there.
A marketplace result tells you the value. Vitals Vault keeps the value, the context, and the next question in the same place — biological age, category scores, and the lab test drilldowns that turn one number into a system view.
Dashboard health context
Your dashboard turns completed labs into biological age, health-score summaries, category views, and lab-test-level drilldowns instead of leaving results trapped in a static portal.

Action plans that stay attached to results
The dashboard action plan is organized into Supplements, Nutrition, Exercise, Sleep, and Retest, with recommendations tied back to your latest completed lab result and health profile.
- Category tabs keep recommendations scannable
- Retest ideas connect back to lab test findings
- Regeneration path when your health profile changes

FAQ
Real questions, real answers
Answers to the questions DIY shoppers actually ask before their first cart.
Use a lab marketplace when you only need a transaction and already know the exact test. Use Vitals Vault when you want custom ordering plus interpretation: reports, ranges, ratios, trends, past-lab uploads, action guidance, and PocketMD chat.
Lab marketplaces are useful when you already know exactly which single test you want and you only need a transaction. Vitals Vault is built for the higher-value decision: choose Essential ($99 for 120 lab tests), Advanced ($199 for 140), Max ($399 for 160), or build fully custom from individual tests, then keep the results inside a dashboard with standard ranges, functional ranges, ratios, trends, and action guidance.
You get the ordering workflow plus the interpretation layer. Vitals Vault adds proven panel tiers, a fully custom BYOP path, a 90-page Functional Health Report, standard and functional ranges, calculated ratios, longitudinal trends, past-lab uploads, PocketMD, and action guidance that helps you decide what to discuss, retest, or add next.
It depends on the exact cart. Essential is $99 for 120 lab tests plus interpretation, dashboard views, ratios, and guidance; custom panels have a $99 minimum when you want to build a cart from scratch. A marketplace can be lean for a single test, but a multi-test DIY cart can become expensive quickly and usually still leaves interpretation outside the purchase.
That is where Build Your Own Panel matters. The builder asks about symptoms, goals, medications, family history, and prior results, then helps assemble a panel around plausible follow-up questions. You can still add individual tests, but the experience is guided instead of leaving you alone with a giant catalog.
Yes. You can build from individual tests without choosing Essential, Advanced, or Max. Those bundles are high-confidence starting points if you want a ready-made baseline; otherwise Build Your Own Panel lets you assemble the order directly and keep the results inside the same dashboard, reports, ratios, and trend views.
Yes. You can upload past lab PDFs from marketplaces, doctors, or other services. Vitals Vault can extract lab test values, organize them into your profile, and use them for trend views so your historical results do not stay scattered across old emails and portals.
The report is built from structured clinical rules, functional medicine references, lab test relationships, and your health profile. It is designed to make lab data easier to understand and discuss with a licensed clinician. Vitals Vault is not a replacement for your doctor, but it gives you a much stronger starting point than a raw PDF.
