Accessible Pricing

For private organizations recognized by a country’s health ministry and whose mission is in line with humanitarian principles – such as private charities or private hospitals/clinics offering free or low-cost care – eligibility for negotiated pricing is decided on a case-by-case basis by Cepheid in consultation with local and global stakeholders.

All prices in these tables are given Ex Works and a prepayment requirement applies. Shipping charges under other Incoterms may be quoted in addition.

Warranty

Warranty covers the GeneXpert instrument and parts (such as module or computer replacement)
  • Warranty starts when systems are invoiced
  • All GeneXpert systems come with a one-year manufacturer warranty on parts
  • For the Global Access program a second year of warranty is offered at no additional cost on condition that the system check (Xpert Check) is performed before the end of the first year
  • Xpert Check kit should be ordered and performed every year to certify the system remains within specification
  • Remote assistance is included

Onsite interventions are not included unless a separate agreement is in place (such as Access Care or Warranty Extension “Plus”)

Warranty extensions

  • In addition to the initial 2-year warranty provided by Cepheid, warranty extensions can also be purchased per-system payment or single contract option to cover multiple instruments or entire system install base, for +1 year or +3 years coverage

  • That includes parts replacement, repairs, and online technical support

  • The cost of shipping parts is covered by Cepheid (CIP) – additional charges may be incurred to the customer. Onsite interventions are included in Warranty Extensions “Plus”

System maintenance

Preventive maintenance includes the regular maintenance tasks that can be executed onsite by the user to ensure the good performance of the system. Maintenance procedures may be performed more frequently according to your environmental conditions.

Regular maintenance includes:

  • Daily maintenance: Clean work area, close all module doors and discard used cartridges.
  • Weekly maintenance: Power down the GeneXpert instrument and the computer and clean fan prefilters.
  • Monthly: Archive and purge tests
  • Quarterly maintenance: Clean plunger rod and cartridge bay, clean the instrument surfaces and replace filters.
  • Annually: perform annual instrument maintenance with Xpert Check
  • As necessary maintenance: Clean I-Core using I-CORE brush, print and review system log report and backup database.

Annual system check:

Xpert Check is performed every year  to certify that the system remains within specification: one kit allows the user to check 4 modules.

The kit should be ordered from Cepheid at ordersinternational@cepheid.com  (US$ 450, unless there is a warranty extension in place).

No shipping costs will be added if the Xpert Check kit is shipped with other tests or systems.

Xpert Check results may trigger module replacement if nominal performance conditions are not met.

For any system covered by a warranty or a warranty extension, the costs of module replacement are included.

Outside of warranty

For any System not covered by a warranty or a warranty extension, any failure should be reported to Cepheid. Should a module replacement deemed necessary, a pre-owned module would be charged at US$ 900. Shipping costs both ways will be added to the quote. It is mandatory to return the replaced defective module(s).to Cepheid

Onsite interventions are not included and can be quoted separately by the assigned authorized service provider.

AccessCare

This program simplifies service budget management, integrating service and support into test pricing based on a volume commitment. All GeneXpert systems are covered by one Service Level Agreement and the performance is monitored and shared monthly, quarterly, and annually.
