Chains and independents

Of the 509 pathology labs and blood test collection points we hold, 79 (16%) carry a chain or brand name in our source. The most common are Lancet (41), PathCare (28), Ampath (5), Ampath Laboratories (2) and Melomed Hospital (Tokai) (1). The other 84% are independent businesses or entries without a brand tag. Brand tags come from the open dataset and are not always complete, so a branch of a chain can appear without one.
