A community diagnostic centre is a place where people can go for medical tests in England. They were started in 2021 because of the the COVID-19 pandemic. It was important to keep people out of hospitals where they were more likely to get diseases. There were 40 centres at first. £350 million was there for the first year. ^[1] £2.3 billion was set aside for up to 160 of the centres by March 2025.

Most of them are on health care sites, with about 20% in shopping centres and similar places.^[2] By October 2022 92 centres had opened and they had done two million tests, checks, and scans. They are run by private companies.^[3] In August 2023 the government announced 13 new centres. They can deliver 742,000 more tests a year. 8 will be run by the private sector.^[4]

People can get MRI scans, ultrasound, X-ray, breast screening, phlebotomy and bone density scans.^[5]
