how long does it take to get a1c results

The time it takes to receive your A1C test results can vary depending on the lab and healthcare provider. Typically, results are available within 1 to 2 days after the blood sample is taken. Some clinics or labs may offer same-day results, especially if they have in-house testing facilities.

• Standard Labs: Results usually take 1-2 business days.
• Point-of-Care Testing: Some clinics offer rapid A1C tests that provide results in about 10 minutes.

Always confirm with your healthcare provider for specific timelines.
