MCI Diagnostic Center

What MCI Diagnostic Center does

MCI Diagnostic Center, LLC is a privately held, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) clinical reference laboratory headquartered at 1155 Kas Drive, Suite 180, Richardson, Texas. The company provides diagnostic testing services across clinical chemistry, hematology, microbiology, virology, toxicology, immunology, molecular diagnostics, pharmacogenetics, and histopathology, operating under CLIA, CAP, and COLA accreditations with four CLIA certificate numbers and stated capacity of 500,000+ tests per day across a menu of 2,500+ tests. It also holds FDA Blood Establishment registration, NMSDC Minority Business Enterprise certification, and Texas HUB certification. The company claims to be the largest nationally accredited SDVOSB laboratory, with a national footprint serving all 50 states plus Puerto Rico.

MCI operates a hybrid go-to-market model. The primary channel is enterprise/government contracting, in which the company serves federal agencies (DoD, VA, HHS, DLA, DoA, DoL, IHS, GSA, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Library of Congress, NGA) under GSA Federal Supply Schedule 621 II (Contract ID 36F79723D0014) and a dedicated DLA client portal (mci.safemedicaldata.com). A secondary direct-to-consumer channel sells 23 at-home test kits (COVID-19, HbA1c, cholesterol, hepatitis, HIV, drug screening, paternity) via the company's e-commerce store at price points from $8 to $199. Government pricing is negotiated under GSA FSS contract vehicle and billed on multi-year contracts, while D2C is transactional pay-as-you-go. The company also serves healthcare-provider referrals and education-sector customers (e.g., Department of Labor Office of Job Corps LMS) and is pursuing additional state licensure (New York pending) and certifications (AABB, SAMHSA, SBA 8(a)) to broaden its regulated service surface.
