The point of care diagnostic market is expected to grow from USD 36.725 billion in 2025 to USD 49.209 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 6.03%.
The point-of-care (POC) diagnostics market, encompassing bedside testing performed outside traditional laboratory settings, has seen significant growth driven by technological advancements and rising healthcare needs. POC testing enables rapid evaluation, diagnosis, prognosis, and screening, reducing errors and improving efficiency. The availability of portable, handheld, and transportable devices has expanded testing capabilities beyond hospitals to homes, emergency care, and convenience clinics, meeting the growing demand for accessible diagnostics.
The POC diagnostics market is expanding rapidly due to the rising prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases, technological advancements in portable devices, and supportive healthcare policies, particularly in North America. The market’s growth is further propelled by the need for rapid, accessible diagnostics in diverse settings, addressing critical healthcare challenges in both developed and emerging regions.

Market Drivers
The increasing prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases is a primary driver of the POC diagnostics market. In emerging nations like China and India, the rising incidence of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes has heightened demand. For instance, the International Diabetes Federation reported in 2021 that 537 million adults aged 20-79 globally were living with diabetes, with significant numbers in these countries. Similarly, infectious diseases such as HIV and tuberculosis (TB) are fueling market growth. UNAIDS estimated 20.6 million people were living with HIV in 2019, including 2.1 million in India, driving demand for POC diagnostics to accelerate treatment. The World Health Organization noted India’s high TB burden, with 2.64 million cases in 2020, further emphasizing the need for rapid diagnostics in resource-limited settings. Additionally, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) affects four to five million children annually worldwide, contributing to the demand for POC testing to manage such disorders effectively.Geographical Outlook
North America is poised for significant growth in the POC diagnostics market during the forecast period. The surge in COVID-19 cases has been a key factor, increasing the need for rapid testing solutions. The region benefits from robust product innovation, a rising incidence of infectious and chronic diseases, and supportive governmental initiatives promoting early detection and regular health check-ups. The United States and Canada are pivotal markets, driven by increased healthcare expenditure, a growing number of hospitals and diagnostic laboratories, and strategic collaborations among industry players. These factors collectively enhance the adoption of POC devices, positioning North America as a leader in market expansion.The POC diagnostics market is expanding rapidly due to the rising prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases, technological advancements in portable devices, and supportive healthcare policies, particularly in North America.
