The supplied MedTech Dive summary identifies the proposed acquisition, Millennium Health’s specialty laboratory position, Labcorp’s intended addition of drug testing services, and the timing of the third buyout announcement. The proposed buyout remains the central event reported by the publisher.

What the report establishes

MedTech Dive’s report establishes that Labcorp has proposed a Millennium Health buyout and that the stated purpose is to add drug testing services. It also establishes that Millennium Health is a specialty laboratory and that Labcorp announced three buyouts in eight days.
