Major 10 US Clinical Laboratories

The Clinical Medical is responsible for the tests/assays performed on specimens (blood, serum, urine, tissue, etc.) that give the physician the true picture of the patient’s status. They are the unsung heros of healthcare.

I looked for a major Ten list and couldn’t discover one (without an outlay of cash). So I asked several of my clients - these are their answers. If you know more, please leave it in the comments and I will add it to the article.

Sales positions within the clinical laboratories can be very lucrative and fast moving. The more prominent labs are going to have commission plans that reflect their market share (what does this mean? you can make more $$ working for an up and coming lab that’s hungry for the growth). The typical day for these reps is usually spent calling on the physicians or hospital contacts (Finance is heavily involved in the decision of who to send tests to because the $$ are so big).  The goal is to have ‘em send all of their tests to your lab for testing.

My list is sorted by business/revenue:

1. Quest - Ameripath

2. LabCorp

3. BioReference

4. Caris Diagnostics

5. ARUP

6. CPL

7. UPMC

8. ?

9. ?

Ten. ?

Can you help me? Is my list wrong? or right? Who are the others?
