“Since embarking on the commercial launch of BREVAGenplus we have been steadfast in exploring the optimal methodology to effectively market the product without comprising resources. Our recent shift to a patient self-pay program coupled with the on-going operational strategic review served as catalysts to transform the commercial program into a pure ecommerce system enabling us to manage in totality, a streamlined organisation that is conserving capital without comprising commercial activities,” commented Mr. Eutillio Buccilli, Chief Executive Officer of Genetic Technologies Limited.
CIT provides testing under the guidance and management of a remote physician using guideline driven protocols to ensure;
A CIT platform, complemented by direct to consumer advertising, can reach two primary audiences through various channels and mediums. First, the patient that qualifies for the product may be reached through multiple promotional publications and second, the healthcare provider that focuses on women’s health and the administration of better breast health. The CIT strategy is currently used in the market by U.S. based laboratories with the patient having the ability of ordering the test through a user friendly platform that is authorised by a licensed healthcare provider. CIT offers the inclusion of a licensed healthcare provider, patient qualification and direct advertising channels to the targeted audiences.
In April of 2017, in an effort to simplify the customer experience, the Company switched its billing model from a traditional reimbursement system through medical insurance providers, to a direct patient self-pay system, with a new reduced list price of USD $349.00 per test. The rationale behind the change in the billing system was based on the recognition that gaining adequate payment for BREVAGenplus, through a CPT miscellaneous code, had become increasingly difficult over the past few years. Furthermore, by converting to a direct pay relationship with patients, the Company added certainty to the transaction, thus, eliminating issues such as low levels of reimbursement, prolonged payment time, patient confusion around eligibility and financial responsibility and poor coverage.
Under the refined commercial program, the Company will continue to provide product consulting and educational resources to the physician and patient communities. A BREVAGenplus dedicated staff member will be available telephonically to address incoming product specification queries and provide counsel to parties interested in learning more about the test.
