Growing Awareness Related to Preventive Medicine to drive the India diagnostic labs market through 2028
According to TechSci Research report, “India Diagnostic Labs Market – By Region Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2018-2028,” the India diagnostic labs market stood at USD14796.21 million in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.53% during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to an increase in demand for early disease diagnosis and the identification of root causes as soon as possible to acquire the suitable and best therapy.
The Government of India under the National Health Mission have started with the Free Essential Diagnostics Initiative to address the high out of pocket expenditure on diagnostics (10% OOPE on cost of diagnostics 11% in OPD and 9.6% in IPD as per NSSO 71st round) and improve quality of healthcare services. The objective of the Free Diagnostic Services Initiative program is to ensure availability and access to diagnostic tests at public health facilities as well as to reduce out of pocket expenditure incurred by patients on diagnostics. Provision of appropriate diagnostics is necessary and critical in providing adequate comprehensive healthcare services in public health facilities. SC/PHC/CHC/SDH/DH facilities in states need to strengthen the public health facility to enable delivery of diagnostic services, especially low-cost high volume diagnostic tests.
The lack of skilled professionals, especially in tier 2 and tier 3 cities, who can effectively collect and perform different types of diagnostic tests is expected to slow down the growth of the India diagnostic labs market. Additionally, the standalone centers, especially in smaller towns and cities, even lack professionals who could accurately read and analyze the diagnostic test results. This, in turn, is expected to restrict the overall market growth. However, various major hospitals and centers in India are constantly working to improve the healthcare and diagnostics sector of the country by increasing their reach and helping outpatients by the provision of quality services without affecting the pockets of the average users of services in the country and initiatives of the Government of India is laying a helping hand in the same.
