Increased spending on healthcare globally coupled with rising geriatric population susceptible to chronic diseases are expected to boost demand for office-based labs. Office-based laboratory testing allows for improved patient access and turnaround time compared to hospitals. This has encouraged healthcare providers as well as patients to opt for office-based labs. However, high cost of setting up and maintaining office-based labs can hamper the market growth. The emergence of advanced technologies such as point-of-care & mobile diagnostic solutions are expected to enhance the efficiency of office-based labs, further propelling the market during the forecast period.
Rising Demand for Specialized Diagnostics
The demand for specialized diagnostic tests is increasing globally as numerous new diagnostic tools are being developed to enable early detection and precision diagnosis of various diseases. From genomic testing to evaluate cancer risk to non-invasive prenatal testing for fetal abnormalities, office-based laboratories are at the forefront of commercializing and making these advanced diagnostics accessible to more patients. As healthcare moves towards personalized and precision medicine, diagnostics that can provide in-depth analysis of an individual's clinical condition at a molecular level are gaining popularity. Office-based laboratories allow integrating these specialized tests into routine healthcare delivery, and making them available locally without patients having to travel long distances. This facilitates improved patient compliance and faster decision making. As new diagnostic technologies continue to evolve, their adoption is expected to grow, driving increased volume and scope for office-based laboratories.
The growing number of doctors are focusing their practice areas into specific therapeutic or medical disciplines rather than general healthcare. This trend of increased specialization among physicians is contributing to the growth of office-based laboratories. Specialty practices, whether focused on areas like cardiology, oncology or women's health, rely more on targeted diagnostic testing to aid clinical evaluation and treatment decisions. Having an affiliated laboratory within the same premises makes it convenient for specialty physicians to consult with pathologists, order customized test panels and discuss results in real-time.
