Overview
Patients can now access the results of at-home blood and DNA tests from MyHealthChecked via the NHS App, thanks to a collaboration with Patients Know Best (PKB).
Key Features of the Integration
- Integration went live on July 25, 2025.
- Patients can securely share their test results with healthcare professionals.
- Results are stored alongside other health information in a secure environment.
Statements from Leaders
Dr. Mohammad Al-Ubaydli, CEO of PKB, emphasized:
βWith the PKB integration, patients can now have their MyHealthChecked test results alongside all their other health information in one secure place. This fosters informed discussions where needed and supports accessible, preventive healthcare services from home, reducing pressure on NHS primary care settings.β
Availability
The service is accessible wherever PKB is operational with the NHS App, covering 22 integrated care systems in England and Swansea Bay University Health Board in Wales.
How to Access Results
- Patients must register for a PKB personal health record.
- Link their PKB account to the MyHealthChecked dashboard.
Comments from MyHealthChecked
Penny McCormick, CEO of MyHealthChecked, stated:
βOur partnerships with PKB and UK retailers are integral in helping us support customers to make informed decisions about their health. For the first time, customers taking one of our at-home blood or DNA tests will be able to link their test results into their patient record and access these via the NHS App.β
Test Range
The MyHealthChecked range includes tests for:
- Thyroid function
- Cholesterol levels
- Healthy weight

Quality Assurance
The tests are developed to align with standard NHS tests and utilize ISO 15189 accredited laboratories. Samples are sent to UK laboratories for analysis, and results are screened before being shared with patients.
