CLINICAL DIAGNOSTICS LABS
At Velsera we have advanced technology platforms enabled by expert services that help you capture the opportunity in NGS testing.
The challenges & opportunities facing Clinical Diagnostic Laboratories today
Over the past 10+ years’ NGS testing has rapidly grown to become a mainstay of advanced clinical care. However, despite the relatively established practice many Clinical Laboratories struggle to run effective diagnostic testing programs and get full value out of the service. We see 3 primary challenges:
Getting started.
The first challenge comes from just getting started. The complex workflow, specialist skills required and myriad of equipment and test options available can all be barriers to a lab deciding to run NGS in-house. Without the proper support we have seen labs take 1-2 years to get started, often failing validation multiple times and struggling to get reimbursed for more than 30% of tests they run. However, with the right support and guidance we have seen startup times cut by more than 50% and reimbursement rates significantly increase.
Scaling up.
Even once a lab is up and running the second challenge comes in scaling the operation. The highly complex workflow coupled with specialist training required mean that often scarce resources become the bottleneck to growth. We believe that with the right technology, coupled with tried-and-tested SOPs and workflows the efficiency of the operation can be dramatically increased, removing barriers to growth.
Maximizing value from your data.
Once up and running your lab will be generating an enormous amount of valuable clinical-genomic data. Often at an individual lab scale we find that it is hard to extract full value from your data (beyond some internal data analysis). However, but connecting your data in to our network of other labs’ data you can compare and combine the datasets to glean new insights for your team as well as potentially generate new revenue streams through commercializing the data (subject to appropriate permissions).

Solutions
Clinical Interpretation & Reporting
Grow revenue by expanding your NGS business. Velsera helps diagnostic labs rapidly establish and grow new, profitable NGS revenue streams. With our support, we can help your lab get up-and-running with an existing on-market assay (20+ LDT & IVD options available), including support for validation, revenue cycle management, and our Clinical Genomics Workspace (CGW) software to aid clinical decision-making.
NGS Assay Development & Expansion
Has your lab recognized an unmet need in the market? Velsera helps ambitious diagnostic labs generate revenue by creating, integrating, hosting and/or deploying custom-developed NGS analysis pipelines. Additionally, we help with validation and regulatory support to ensure compliance, as well as Revenue Cycle Management support to enable reimbursement. Optionally, tertiary CGW reporting is available to create a fully integrated secondary & tertiary analysis package for your test.
IVD Compliance Transition
Don’t let compliance challenges impede your progress. Velsera assists labs in navigating the FDA submission process for both new assays and existing Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs). We provide the necessary “dry-lab” component for approved products, along with optional tertiary reporting to enhance your workflow.
Clinical & 'omic data unlock
With Velsera’s help, diagnostic labs are uncovering opportunities embedded within the data they already collect. By harmonizing scattered, siloed, and unstructured clinical-genomic information, the newly assembled data can then either be directly commercialized, or can enable analysis and insights that help inform strategic and operational decision-making within your lab.
Technology
Services
Our clinical experts have all the tools to help you get up and running with NGS quickly, including – clinical validation, SOP writing, Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) & reimbursement support, mock-audits, on-site go-live support, IT integration, implementation and project management.
Our experienced team has many years of experience working with regulatory bodies (e.g., CLIA, FDA etc.), enabling us to develop advanced offerings to guide you through the process of achieving regulatory approval as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Our experienced team of in-house bioinformaticians can help with any aspect of bioinformatics support including augmenting your internal teams to develop market leading analysis pipelines.
Real-world impact, trusted partnerships
“The Clinical Genomics Workspace (CGW) by Velsera has provided our laboratory with a seamless, integrated software solution that allows us to spend more time analyzing the sequencing data and generating clinical reports and less time worrying about logistics.”
