About Quest Diagnostics

Quest helps doctors and patients understand health through laboratory test results. They perform blood and tissue tests to help find and treat diseases. These services support about half of all physicians and hospitals in the United States.

What Quest Does

  • Diagnostic Information Services: Routine, non-routine, and advanced clinical testing including oncology and genetics; accounted for approximately 40% of revenue from health plans in 2025.
  • Advanced Diagnostics: Specialized tests for complex conditions like Alzheimer's disease and cancer; certain offerings in five clinical areas generated over $1 billion in revenue in 2025.
  • Diagnostic Solutions: Risk assessment services for life insurers and information technology tools for healthcare providers.
  • Employer Services: Workplace drug testing and employee wellness programs to help companies manage health costs and safety.

Growth and New Directions

  • Acquired Haystack Oncology in 2023 to add highly sensitive technology for detecting recurring cancer.
  • Launched a joint venture with Corewell Health in 2025 to perform laboratory testing in Michigan.
  • Purchased clinical testing assets from Fresenius Medical Care through Spectra Laboratories in 2025.
  • Acquired LifeLabs in 2024, expanding diagnostic and digital health services into the Canadian market.

Why Quest Stands Out

Quest maintains one of the largest clinical databases in the world with over 80 billion patient data points. This data allows the company to identify health trends and develop precise new tests through artificial intelligence and advanced automation.

The Recent Numbers

  • Revenue reached $11 billion in 2025, according to the annual report.
  • Net income was $245 million in Q4 2025, up 10.4% from Q4 2024.
  • Operating income rose to $391 million in Q4 2025, an 8.3% increase year-over-year.
  • The company served approximately half of the adult population in the United States over a three-year period.

Bottom Line

Quest has transitioned from a traditional lab provider into a data-driven healthcare partner. Its expansion into specialized genetic testing and digital health tools has diversified its role across the global medical landscape.
