Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Labcorp® Holdings Inc. (Labcorp® or the Company) is a global leader of innovative and comprehensive laboratory services that provides vital information to help doctors, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, researchers, and patients make clear and confident decisions. By leveraging its unparalleled diagnostics and drug development capabilities, the Company provides insights and accelerates innovations to improve health and improve lives. On April 25, 2024, the Company announced plans to implement a new public holding company structure, with Labcorp Holdings Inc. as the new holding company. On May 17, 2024, the Company completed the holding company reorganization (Reorganization) and Labcorp Holdings Inc. became the successor issuer to Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (LCAH). The new holding company has no independent assets or operations and its sole ownership interest is in LCAH. The Company reports its business in two segments, Diagnostics Laboratories (Dx) and Biopharma Laboratory Services (BLS), formerly Drug Development. For further financial information about these segments, see Note 12 (Business Segment Information) to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, Dx and BLS contributed approximately 78% and 22%, respectively, of revenues to the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, Dx and BLS contributed approximately 78% and 22%, respectively, of revenues to the Company. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, cash flows, and financial position have been made. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s fiscal year 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K (Annual Report). Therefore, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries for which it exercises control. Long-term investments in affiliated companies in which the Company exercises significant influence, but which it does not control, are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence (generally, when the Company has an investment of less than 20.0% and no representation on the investee's board of directors) are accounted for at fair value, or at cost minus impairment adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer for those investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The Company does not have any significant variable interest entities or special purpose entities whose financial results are not included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The financial statements of the Company's operating foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).”
