Business model and operations
Lumexa Imaging states that it is a nationwide provider of diagnostic imaging services and outpatient medical imaging. Its centers conduct outpatient scans, and the company reports that its team completed approximately 4 million outpatient scans in 2024. The company’s outpatient imaging centers are positioned as freestanding facilities with extended hours and easily accessible retail locations in high-growth metropolitan statistical areas.

In earlier descriptions of its business, Lumexa Imaging Holdings Inc. is identified as a provider of diagnostic imaging services with operations managed and reported in two operating segments: Outpatient Imaging Centers (Outpatient) and Professional Services (Professional). The Outpatient segment generates revenue by performing imaging studies and providing radiologists’ interpretations of those studies. The Professional Services segment generates revenue from interpreting imaging studies conducted by other parties, mainly hospital imaging departments. Based on these disclosures, Lumexa’s business model combines operation of outpatient centers with professional interpretation services.

A subsequent update noted that, following additional de novo openings, Lumexa operates more than 185 centers across 13 states.

Strategic focus and growth
Lumexa Imaging highlights a de novo growth strategy centered on opening new outpatient imaging centers in high-growth metropolitan statistical areas.
