High Cost of WGS Acting as a Restraint for Market Growth
‘High cost of Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) due to unregulation absence of insurance coverage acting as major restraints to market growth’, says RNCOS.
Noida, UP -- (SBWire) -- 02/05/2015 --Though the cost of WGS has been declining on a consistent basis, patients still find the service's price significantly high, especially in the case of cancer, which includes interpretation, analysis and treatment costs. Since the pricing mechanism in the personalized whole genome cancer sequencing is unregulated, private players charge different prices as per the technology used and services offered. Moreover, in the absence of insurance coverage, the out-of-pocket cost to patients fares pretty high.
In future, however, the cost of sequencing is expected to decline significantly and at a rapid pace, with experts believing it to be US$ 1,000 for an individual genome. Besides, technology upgradation will also play a crucial role in the cost reduction process.
