The cholesterol testing market is driven by factors such as increasing incidence of cardiovascular diseases and obesity, physician preference of laboratory testing rather self-testing, government initiatives to improve quality of testing, and rapid growth in the geriatric population are propelling the growth of this market. However, rapidly growing home/self-testing and advent of noninvasive cholesterol testing methods are the major factors that may hinder growth of the market.
The cholesterol testing market is segmented on the basis type of customer and region. Based on type of customer, the market is segmented into physicians/providers and hospitals; employers, health plans, and Managed Care Organizations (MCOs); government agencies, Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), and Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs); and patients.

In November 2016, Quest Diagnostics (U.S.) launched the QuestDirect, a new patient-initiated testing service, in the U.S. This new service will allow the customers better manage their health by ordering certain lab tests directly without any physician intervention.
Based on region, the cholesterol testing services market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia, and RoW. North America is expected to dominate the global cholesterol testing market in 2016, with the U.S. accounting for a major share. Asia is projected to be the fastest-growing region in terms of CAGR during the forecast period. This is due to the large population base, increased prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, and growing number of testing facilities in the Asian region.

The global cholesterol testing services market is expected to reach USD 17.57 Billion by 2021 from USD 11.96 Billion in 2016, growing at a CAGR of 8% during the forecast period.
The market for cholesterol testing services is expected to register significant growth in the coming years with the increasing incidence of cardiovascular diseases and obesity, physician preference for lab testing over self-testing, growing awareness and adoption of preventive healthcare, government initiatives to improve the quality of testing, and rapid growth in the geriatric population. On the other hand, the rapidly growing home/self-testing market and emergence of noninvasive cholesterol testing methods are expected to restrain the growth of this cholesterol testing market to a certain extent.
The report categorizes the cholesterol testing market on the basis of type of customer and region. Based on type of customer, the market is segmented into physicians/providers and hospitals; employers, health plans, and Managed Care Organizations (MCOs); government agencies, Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), and Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs); and patients. In 2016, the physicians/providers and hospitals segment is projected to account for the largest share of the market. The large share of this segment can be attributed to factors such as dependence of physicians on cholesterol test results for making CVD risk assessments and treatment decisions and reimbursement of tests that are prescribed by physicians/doctors.
The patient-driven approach for cholesterol testing is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Growing health awareness and adoption of preventive healthcare, availability of lab test services for patients without any physician intervention, and online access to reports and readings through smartphones are contributing to the growth of the patients segment.
In 2016, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the market followed by Europe, Asia, and RoW. One of the major factors contributing to this large share in North America is the rising geriatric population, which has expanded the addressable patient population base. This change is expected to put the spotlight on preventive measures such as clinical diagnostics, especially cholesterol tests, to reduce adverse events caused by diseases such as stroke, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In North America, the U.S. is a major market for cholesterol testing service providers. The dominance of the U.S. in cholesterol testing services market is due to the increase in Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) waivers for certain diagnostic tests, including blood cholesterol.
In 2016, Europe is expected to hold the second position in this cholesterol testing services market. Factors such as high incidence of chronic diseases, technological advancements in lab tests, and increasing patient awareness are driving the growth of this regional segment. On the other hand, Asia is expected to register the highest growth rate during the forecast period.
