Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Laboratory Corporation of America ® Holdings (Labcorp ® or the Company) is a leading global life sciences company that provides vital information to help doctors, hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, researchers, and patients make clear and confident decisions. By leveraging its strong diagnostics and drug development capabilities, the Company provides insights and accelerates innovations to improve health and improve lives. The Company reports its business in two segments, Labcorp Diagnostics (Dx) and Labcorp Drug Development (DD). For further financial information about these segments, see Note 14 Business Segment Information to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, Dx and DD contributed approximately 61% and 39% respectively, of revenues to the Company. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Dx and DD contributed approximately 63% and 37% respectively of revenues to the Company. 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.

Therefore, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report. Recently Adopted Guidance In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a new accounting standard to reduce, modify, and add to the disclosure requirements on defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to simplify accounting for income taxes and remove, modify, and add to the disclosure requirements of income taxes. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. New Accounting Pronouncements In January 2021, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions relative to reference rate reform for contract modification and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) including the impact of dilutive adjustments by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive shares, as if they had been issued at the earlier of the date of issuance or the beginning of the period presented. Potentially dilutive common shares result primarily from the Company’s outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance share awards. The following represents a reconciliation of basic earnings (loss) per share to diluted earnings (loss) per share: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 Earnings Shares Per Share Amount Earnings (Loss) Shares Per Share Amount Earning Shares Per Share Amount Earnings Shares Per Share Amount Basic earnings (loss) per share: Net earnings (loss) $ 467.4 97.4 $ 4.80 $ 231.6 97.3 $ 2.38 $ 1,237.0 97.5 $ 12.69 $ (85.6) 97.2 $ (0.88) Dilutive effect of employee stock options and awards — 0.8 — 0.4 — 0.8 — — Net earnings (loss) including impact of dilutive adjustments $ 467.4 98.2 $ 4.76 $ 231.6 97.7 $ 2.37 $ 1,237.0 98.4 $ 12.58 $ (85.6) 97.2 $ (0.88) Diluted earnings per share represent the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES The Company does not recognize a tax benefit unless it concludes that it is more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on audit by the taxing authority based solely on the technical merits of the associated tax position. If the recognition threshold is met, the Company recognizes a tax benefit measured at the largest amount of the tax benefit that it believes is greater than 50% likely to be realized. The year to date 2021 tax rate was favorable to the corresponding year to date 2020 tax rate due primarily to the 2020 impairment charges for which either no tax benefit was recorded (as they were not deductible) or the associated tax assets required a full valuation allowance partially offset by the 2021 revaluation of the United Kingdom net deferred tax liabilities reflecting a 25% effective tax rate as of 2023. The gross unrecognized income tax benefits were $48.8 and $48.8 at June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively. It is anticipated that the amount of the unrecognized income tax benefits will change within the next 12 months; however, these changes are not expected to have a significant impact on the results of operations, cash flows or the financial position of the Company. As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, $46.7 and $46.7, respectively, are the approximate amounts of gross unrecognized income tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits in income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions totaled $9.1 and $8.3 as of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company has substantially concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2016. Substantially all material state and local and foreign income tax matters have been concluded through 2015 and 2011, respectively. The Company has various state and foreign income tax examinations ongoing throughout the year. The Company believes adequate provisions have been recorded related to all open tax years. |

The noncontrolling interest put is valued at its contractually determined value, which approximates fair value. The Company offers certain employees the opportunity to participate in an employee-funded deferred compensation plan (DCP). A participant's deferrals are allocated by the participant to one or more of 16 measurement funds, which are indexed to externally managed funds. From time to time, to offset the cost of the growth in the participant's investment accounts, the Company purchases life insurance policies, with the Company named as beneficiary of the policies. Changes in the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies are based upon earnings and changes in the value of the underlying investments, which are typically invested in a similar manner to the participant's allocations. Changes in the fair value of the DCP obligation are derived using quoted prices in active markets based on the market price per unit multiplied by the number of units. The cash surrender value and the DCP obligations are classified within Level 2 because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to the hypothetical investments. Contingent acquisition consideration liabilities are measured at fair value using Level 3 valuations. These contingent consideration liabilities were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and are remeasured quarterly based on the then assessed fair value and adjusted if necessary. The increases or decreases in the fair value of contingent consideration payable can result from changes in anticipated revenue levels and changes in assumed discount periods and rates. As the fair value measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, they are categorized as Level 3. |

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The Company addresses its exposure to market risks, principally the market risk associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, through a controlled program of risk management that includes, from time to time, the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company does not believe that its exposure to market risk is material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Interest Rate Swaps During the second quarter of 2021, the Company entered into fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements for its 2.70% senior notes due 2031 with an aggregate notional amount of $500.0 and variable interest rates based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.0706%. These agreements were designated as hedges against changes in the fair value of a portion of the Company's long-term debt. The aggregate fair value of $9.5 at June 30, 2021 was included as a component of other long-term assets and added to the reported value of the senior notes. Cross Currency Swaps During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company entered into U.S. Dollar to Swiss Franc cross-currency swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $600.0.

Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company acquired a business and related assets for approximately $34.1 in cash within Dx. The purchase consideration for the acquisition in the six months ended June 30, 2021, has been allocated under the acquisition method of accounting to the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired, including approximately $17.6 in identifiable intangible assets and a residual amount of non-tax deductible goodwill of approximately $15.6. The amortization periods for intangible assets acquired from the business range from 5 to 15 years for customer relationships and non-compete agreements. The acquisition was made primarily to expand the Company's services for hospitals and health system laboratories. The excess of the fair value of the consideration conveyed over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill reflects the Company's expectations to utilize the acquired business' workforce and established relationships and the benefits of being able to leverage operational efficiencies with favorable growth opportunities in these markets. |

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy | GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2021, are as follows: Dx DD Total Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 3,800.2 $ 3,951.3 $ 7,751.5 Goodwill acquired during the period 15.6 — 15.6 Foreign currency impact and other adjustments to goodwill 5.8 (28.4) (22.6) Balance as of June 30, 2021 $ 3,821.6 $ 3,922.9 $ 7,744.5 The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Based upon the revised forecasted revenues and operating income following the declaration of the COVID-19 global pandemic, management concluded there was a triggering event and updated its annual 2019 goodwill impairment testing as of March 31, 2020, for certain of its DD reporting units and Dx reporting units. Based on the quantitative impairment assessment, performed in the same manner as the annual quantitative assessment, the Company concluded that the fair value was less than carrying value for two of its reporting units and recorded a goodwill impairment of $418.7 for DD and $3.7 for Dx. The components of identifiable intangible assets are as follows: June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Net Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Net Customer relationships $ 4,553.6 $ (1,605.6) $ 2,948.0 $ 4,643.3 $ (1,534.9) $ 3,108.4 Patents, licenses and technology 456.7 (263.6) 193.1 434.7 (252.6) 182.1 Non-compete agreements 114.4 (76.4) 38.0 109.6 (70.7) 38.9 Trade name 399.9 (331.4) 68.5 401.8 (263.9) 137.9 Land use right 10.8 (7.5) 3.3 10.9 (6.9) 4.0 Canadian licenses 502.9 — 502.9 489.8 — 489.8 $ 6,038.3 $ (2,284.5) $ 3,753.8 $ 6,090.1 $ (2,129.0) $ 3,961.1 Amortization of intangible assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, was $92.4 and $60.1 and $184.5 and $122.4, respectively.

Contract costs DD incurs sales commissions in the process of obtaining contracts with customers. Sales commissions that are payable upon contract award are recognized as assets and amortized over the expected contract term, along with related payroll tax expense. The amortization of commission expense is based on the weighted average contract duration for all commissionable awards in the respective business in which the commission expense is paid, which approximates the period over which goods and services are transferred to the customer. The amortization period of sales commissions ranges from approximately 1 to 5 years, depending on the business. For businesses that enter into primarily short-term contracts, the Company applies the practical expedient, which allows costs to obtain a contract to be expensed when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that would otherwise have been recognized is one year or less. Amortization of assets from sales commissions is included in selling, general, and administrative expense. DD incurs costs to fulfill contracts with customers. Contract fulfillment costs include software implementation costs and setup costs for certain market access solutions. These costs are recognized as assets and amortized over the expected term of the contract to which the implementation relates, which is the period over which services are expected to be provided to the customer. This period typically ranges from 2 to 5 years. Amortization of deferred contract fulfillment costs is included in cost of goods sold. June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Sales commission assets $ 36.4 $ 32.6 Deferred contract fulfillment costs 14.9 12.6 Total $ 51.3 $ 45.2 Amortization related to sales commission assets and associated payroll taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, was $6.4 and $5.5, respectively and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, was $13.3 and $10.8 respectively. Amortization related to deferred contract fulfillment costs for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, was $3.0 and $2.3, respectively, and was $6.5 and $5.3, respectively, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2021, and 2020. Receivables, Unbilled Services and Unearned Revenue Unbilled services are comprised primarily of unbilled receivables, but also include contract assets. A contract asset is recorded when a right to payment has been earned for work performed, but billing and payment for that work is determined by certain contractual milestones, whereas unbilled receivables are billable upon the passage of time. While the Company attempts to negotiate terms that provide for billing and payment of services prior or in close proximity to the provision of services, this is not always possible and there are fluctuations in the level of unbilled services and unearned revenue from period to period. The following table provides information about receivables, unbilled services, and unearned revenue (contract liabilities) from contracts with customers which primarily exist within DD. June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Receivables, which are included in accounts receivable $ 1,086.2 $ 1,001.5 Unbilled services 648.4 548.1 Unearned revenue 529.6 492.2 Revenues recognized during the period, that were included in the unearned revenue balance at the beginning of the period were $233.0 and $102.2 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Credit Loss Rollforward The Company estimates future expected losses on accounts receivable, unbilled services and notes receivable over the remaining collection period of the instrument. The rollforward for the allowance for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 is as follows: For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Accounts Receivable Unbilled Services Note and Other Receivables Total Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 22.1 $ 11.3 $ 5.7 $ 39.1 Plus, credit loss expense (credit) (0.4) — — (0.4) Less, write offs 0.8 (0.1) — 0.7 Balance as of June 30, 2021 $ 20.9 $ 11.4 $ 5.7 $ 38.0 Performance Obligations Under Long-Term Contracts Long-term contracts at the Company consist primarily of fully managed clinical studies within DD. The amount of existing performance obligations under such long-term contracts unsatisfied as of June 30, 2021, was $5,616.6. The Company expects to recognize revenue over the remaining contract term of the individual projects, with contract terms generally ranging from 1 to 8 years. Within DD, revenues of $12.2 and $4.0 were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and revenues of $28.7 and $13.7 were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, from performance obligations that were satisfied in previous periods. This revenue primarily relates to adjustments related to changes in scope in full service clinical studies, and to a lesser extent, changes in estimates. |
