In order to capitalize on this highly lucrative opportunity, clinical laboratory service providers such as Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (LabCorp), Quest Diagnostics, Inc., Spectra Laboratories, Sonic Healthcare Limited, and Charles River Laboratories are offering additional services such as web-based booking of test/service and free home pick-up of test samples, complementing regular packages for health check-ups. Charles River Laboratories International, Inc., analyzes samples for metabolic disorders, bone therapy, diabetes and oncology. Globally too, clinical laboratories receive large volumes of samples for analyzing metabolic disorders. The market for clinical chemistry test types is therefore positioned on a strong growth trajectory.
Increasing competition among clinical laboratory service providers in turn is leading to rampant increase in industry consolidation and vertical/horizontal integration. Companies are focusing on establishing regional supremacy in turn improving the dynamics of clinical laboratory services market.
For instance, Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (LabCorp) acquired Sequenom, Inc. in July 2016, subsequently becoming the leader in non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for reproductive health. The company continues its inorganic growth roadmap and in October 2016, it acquired ClearPath Diagnostics, a leading clinical laboratory service provider in the Northeastern region of the U.S.

Increasing incidence of infectious diseases and the growing burden of non-communicable diseases is in turn driving demand for clinical tests. This is influencing clinical laboratory service providers to increase their functional capabilities to cater to the growing needs of patients. As mentioned by Quest Diagnostics, Inc., around 70% of the medical decision are based on lab results. In addition, genetic and cytology testing is increasing that enable better diagnosis of cancer. This is expected to proliferate demand and spur growth for clinical laboratory services market in emerging economies such as China and India. Core Diagnostics, Metropolis, SRL Diagnostics and Dr. Lal Pathlabs are few major diagnostic service providers in India expanding at a rapid pace.
Clinical laboratory service providers are thus, upgrading their processes and technologies to improve efficiency. Therefore, equipment manufacturers such as Abbott Laboratories, Roche and ThermoFisher Scientific also need to develop products catering to this evolving market. Seamless integration of equipment manufacturer and service provider technologies would be a great boost for the global clinical laboratory services market.
Key takeaways of the market:
- The global clinical laboratory services market is estimated to be valued at US$ 192.3 billion in 2017. Growing aging population and increasing incidence of infectious diseases, cardiac disorders, stroke, and liver disorders are factors attributed to growing number of patients visiting clinical laboratories to undergo preventive tests
