Galleri Test Cost (2026): Price, Insurance and Memberships

To compare ordinary lab tests you can buy yourself, see the best blood tests page or price per measured marker.

What the Galleri test is

Galleri is a blood test that looks for signs of many kinds of cancer at once. GRAIL says it "is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located" (GRAIL, read 10 Nov 2026). It is called a multi-cancer test for that reason.

GRAIL says the test "is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those age 50 or older." It also says the test "does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests recommended by a healthcare provider." So it is an add-on to screening such as mammograms and colonoscopy, not a replacement. What a result means for you is a question for your clinician.

Galleri test cost without insurance

The National Cancer Institute says the cost of these tests "varies" (NCI, read 10 Nov 2026). Check the price shown at checkout before you pay, because sellers can change it.

Ways to pay and lower the cost

GRAIL's pricing page lists several options. It describes a payment plan with "0% interest for up to 12 months" if you call customer service, though "Payment plans are not available if the Galleri test is requested online." It also offers a discount for eligible first responders and military through ID.me.

GRAIL's financial assistance program "helps reduce out-of-pocket costs" for individuals who qualify based on financial need and income. The table above shows the list price the reduction applies to; the page gives the maximum reduction and the lowest resulting cost. GRAIL says you may be able to use an FSA or HSA, and to check with your administrator. See our HSA and FSA guide for what lab stores say about those cards.

Does insurance or Medicare cover Galleri?

Usually not. GRAIL says "Most health insurance plans do not cover the cost of the Galleri test" and "The Galleri test is not covered by Medicare or most health insurance plans at this time." The NCI says "Health insurance programs do not routinely cover MCD testing." Some TRICARE plans, employers and life insurers help with the cost, per GRAIL.

GRAIL also notes that the price "does not include" any diagnostic testing, such as imaging, that a positive result could lead to. Ask your insurer how that follow-up would be billed.

Which memberships include Galleri?

Two memberships we track mention Galleri on their own pages, and both treat it as an extra, not part of the base plan.

• Function Health lists "Access to Galleri® Multi-Cancer Test" on its home page (Function Health, read 10 Nov 2026). We did not find a Galleri price on the page text we could read. See our Function Health cost guide for its membership price.
• Superpower lists "Gut, toxins, Grail Galleri cancer screen" under add-on tests (Superpower, read 10 Nov 2026). It also did not show a Galleri price in the page text we read. Our Superpower review covers the base plan.
• WHOOP Advanced Labs sells the test directly, as the table above shows. See our WHOOP review.

Who orders it, and has the FDA cleared it?

Galleri is ordered through a clinician, either one you see or one working with GRAIL or a membership. GRAIL states "The Galleri test has not been cleared or approved by the Food and Drug Administration." It is offered as a laboratory-developed test, which is a test designed and run inside a single lab. The NCI says "No MCD tests have been authorized by the FDA" and that "no professional medical societies nor the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force have issued recommendations on the use of MCD tests for cancer screening." Rules may change, so check the FDA for the latest.
