Favorable Regulatory and Reimbursement Policies Predicted to Boost the Growth of Rapid Diagnostics Until 2020, Says TechnavioAccording to the latest market research report by Technavio, the global rapid diagnostics market will reach over USD 27 billion by 2020. In this report, Technavio covers the present scenario and growth prospects of the global rapid diagnostics market for 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, revenue generated from the sales of rapid diagnostics products, including over-the-counter (OTC) rapid diagnostics tests (self-testing kits, glucose meters, and strips) and professional rapid diagnostics tests (test kits, handheld devices, and small analyzer) have been considered. "Favorable reimbursement scenario is an important contributor to the growth of the market. The US, Australia, and few countries in the EU are offering limited reimbursement coverage for laboratory testing services. For example, in the UK, the NHS offers free healthcare at the point of use for all its citizens, wherein citizens are also entitled to free ambulatory care, inpatient, and outpatient treatments," said Barath Palada, one of Technavio's lead industry analysts for in-vitro diagnostics research. "During the forecast period, the market is predicted to witness advances in rapid diagnostic technologies, and it has resulted in the development of innovative kits. The growing prevalence of miniaturization of rapid diagnostic devices offers many advantages over centralized laboratory testing services, such as quick analysis, compact size, less consumption of reagents, and functional integration of multiple devices," added Barath.
