From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

 -- Most hospital and commercial laboratories offer blood tests collected together in PACKAGES (sometimes called profiles). The number of tests in each package and the cost varies between laboratories. On your bill, a sum is usually quoted for the entire package of tests, without breaking out the charge for each test. In the lab report, the result and name of each test are clearly marked. Some common profiles include coronary risk profile, electrolyte package, hepatitis profile, liver profile, thyroid profile and chemical profile. Each is covered in this glossary.
