Saudi Arabia Diagnostic Labs Market Outlook
*this image is indicative*
The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases, among others, is primarily driving the demand for diagnostic labs in Saudi Arabia. The market is driven by an increasing rate of collaborations and strategic partnerships to improve patient outcomes in clinical settings. The rising adoption of advanced diagnostic technologies in order to attain more accurate and rapid test results has significantly favored market growth. Remote consultation, test ordering, and result delivery are becoming highly prevalent in the region. The COVID-19 pandemic fostered the increased adoption of telemedicine and home testing services in Saudi Arabia, enabling patients to access diagnostic facilities conveniently. Additionally, the increasing awareness among people about diagnostic testing and early detection of diseases has been aiding the growth of the diagnostic labs market.
Rising Adoption of Advanced Diagnostic Technologies
Diagnostic labs in Saudi Arabia are adopting advanced technologies such as next-generation sequencing, molecular diagnostics, and digital pathology among others. In October 2023, King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC) introduced Rapid Whole-Genome Sequencing (rWGS) in their diagnostic labs. The new service is intended to help doctors diagnose genetic and rare diseases, especially in newborns. rWGS helps by reducing the average genetic testing duration from the conventional two-month timeframe to a time of less than 35 hours. Such technical advancements in prominent healthcare institutions are expected to significantly contribute to the growth of the market share in the coming years.
Growth in Strategic Partnerships to Meet Rising Saudi Arabia Diagnostic Labs Market Demand
The growth in public and private collaborations is a notable market driver. Such partnerships facilitate increased access to diagnostic services, improve the healthcare infrastructure along with the accuracy of diagnostic services. In June 2023, the Health Ministry of Saudi Arabia signed a privatization contract to operate and manage the radiology department in 7 hospitals. The partnership is projected to offer increased diagnostic services access to more than 1.5 million beneficiaries in the country. The initiative is a major leap in meeting the growing market demand for diagnostic labs in the region.
