At-Home Blood Draws Are Here: How Mito's Mobile Phlebotomy Works
Mito customers with eligible standard lab orders can now request a licensed phlebotomist to collect their blood samples at home.

Mito customers with standard lab orders can now request an at-home blood draw. A licensed phlebotomist comes to your home and performs a standard venous draw, so you can complete an eligible order without traveling to a collection site.
This professional service is a new option alongside Mito’s seven at-home self-collection kits. Both offerings remain available, but they work differently. A professional at-home blood draw uses the same type of venous collection used for a regular lab order. A self-collection kit is shipped to you and uses a Tasso+ upper-arm collector, with no phlebotomist visit.
How to request a professional at-home blood draw
Start by purchasing a standard lab test or panel. Then open the appointments section of your Mito dashboard, request an at-home blood draw, and enter the address where you want the phlebotomist to visit.
Here is what happens next:
- Mito reviews your request. We check whether the ordered tests and lab provider support an at-home draw. We also check state restrictions and phlebotomist coverage for your ZIP code.
- Your regular lab option stays available. You can still schedule your original collection-site visit while the at-home request is under review.
- Carecrew collects payment after approval. If the request is approved, Carecrew contacts you to collect the flat $99 at-home collection fee.
- You schedule the visit. After payment, your dashboard provides a link to choose a time and confirm the service address.
- A licensed phlebotomist visits your home. The phlebotomist performs the venous blood draw and collects the samples required for your approved lab order.
You are not charged when you submit a request. If an at-home draw is unavailable for the order or address, you will not be charged the home-draw fee. Your regular lab option remains available.
Who can use at-home phlebotomy?
Professional at-home blood draws are an option for adults with standard Mito lab-test and panel orders. Availability is confirmed for each request. The specific order, lab provider, state, and ZIP code must all be serviceable.
Submitting a request does not guarantee approval or an appointment. We usually hear back within 4 business days. Check the at-home testing FAQ and your Mito dashboard for the current process and the status of your request.
At-home blood draw vs. at-home test kit
Mito offers two distinct ways to collect blood at home:
| Offering | Who collects the sample? | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| At-home blood draw | A licensed phlebotomist | The phlebotomist visits your home and performs a standard venous draw for an approved standard lab order. |
| At-home test kit | You | One of seven curated kits is shipped to your home. You use the included Tasso+ upper-arm collector and send the sample to the lab in the prepaid return package. No phlebotomist visits. |
Both offerings remain available, and neither replaces the other. Choose a professional at-home blood draw when you have a standard lab order and want to request a phlebotomist visit. Choose a self-collection kit when one of the seven curated kit options fits what you want to test and you prefer to collect the sample yourself.
