Cepheid has partnered with key non-profit organizations to provide accessible pricing for both the GeneXpert® System, a selection of Xpert® tests in more than 140 low to middle income countries (LMICs), and Service Contract offerings. The prices are public and fixed in USD$.

The public sector in eligible countries* can purchase Xpert test cartridges for Tuberculosis, HIV, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B, Human Papillomavirus (HPV), Mpox, Ebola virus, and Flu/SARS-CoV-2, Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) / Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), Trichomonas vaginalis (TV), and monitoring of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia at the prices listed below. 

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. For purchase orders and contact information, please refer to the contact details at the bottom of this page. All prices are given Ex Works, and a prepayment requirement applies. Shipping charges under other Incoterms may be quoted in addition.

Warranty covers the GeneXpert instrument and parts (such as module or computer replacement)

• Warranty starts when GeneXpert 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 annual 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”)

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  ($495), 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 an initial warranty or a warranty extension, the costs of module replacement are included.

The public sector and private organizations in eligible countries can purchase instruments and test cartridges by contacting Cepheid directly at the address on the right and mentioning the negotiated preferential price.
