RETAIL CLINIC MARKETS

Participants, Projections, & Prospects

There's no question about the need for the affordable, convenient health care services that are now available in retail clinics. Industry participants and trade organizations promote the benefits, while the medical community cautiously moves forward with guidelines and standards. Are consumers buying the services? Is there sufficient demand to sustain the current level of success?

The retail clinic market is demonstrating rapid growth rates. While dozens of articles and press releases are published monthly, there's limited information evaluating the following market forces:

Clinic-driven retail product sales

Patient volumes

Revenues and revenue growth rates

This report combines published and interview-based material to thoroughly analyze where the market is right now and how large it might become. Retail Clinic Markets examines whether retail clinics are on target with strategic goals by doing a bottom-up analysis of the number of facilities in operation and the revenues that are being generated. Sampling surveys were conducted to confirm or revise clinic representatives' estimates of patient volumes - a critical market indicator of consumer demand and operational success. Two updates have been added since the report was published in July 2007 (38 pages and 19 figures / tables).
