Exploring CLIA Laboratory Trends Over the Past 20 Years

After experiencing booming growth during the Covid pandemic, the number of overall CLIA labs in the United States experienced a decline, with 2023 marking the highest rate of closures in nearly 30 years. With this in mind, what can analyzing the number of active CLIA licenses and other available data tell stakeholders about the direction of the industry as a whole as labs look to rebound?
We recently welcomed LabProspects.com to share proprietary data that offers unique insight into the overall health of the CLIA lab industry and explores growth trends in recent decades. This event sheds light on the total number of active CLIAs and the industry’s current trajectory as we answer the question of whether this is a fertile time of growth for the lab space.
We will discuss and analyze:
• The current number of active CLIA labs in the US.
• Number of labs by type (independent, hospital-based, etc.)
• Lab trends pre- and post-Covid. How did this period impact growth?
• Is the industry currently growing or shrinking?
• How should lab owners use this knowledge to enhance their business?
